it's been a long day-vent

kymoma · November 2009

We're at the inlaws for thanksgiving, and my DH's family is very well known in their very big church. Everyone in the church knew we had lost our daughter, and I knew it would be hard today, but I couldn't have imagined it would be this hard. So many people came up to me and repeatedly asked how I was, as if 1 time of "great" wasn't good enough. As if I would really say how I feel to people who are basically strangers to me. I had to put on a happy smile all morning, and then at church again tonight. I almost burst into tears tonight b/c I had to sit next to our family friend who got pg 1 week after me and looks fantastic and happy. It's like I'm worse now than I was before I came.

I am so so sorry for your loss, and I am sorry that you had to endure that today. People just dont understand how sensitive the whole subject is and sometimes i think that people to make themselves feel better about our situation feel they need to console us. I dont understand why. I hope you have a better day tomorrow. We are here for you! BIG HUGS
