Suddenly Single


This article reminded me of our friend Mel West (she's wearing the cowboy hat in the picture) who is walking the suddenly single road after her husband Ken died last year following a long, painful battle with cancer. We love you Mel and are praying for you!
'In most cases you’re dealing with the loss of someone close,' Grissom says. And whether or not it’s expected, the person is still going through a deep grieving process.

He says that when there’s a death, 'there’s an enormous amount of support around the funeral and maybe for a couple of weeks afterward, but then everyone around starts to resume their lives in a normal fashion; yet the person in grief is still trying to rebuild his or her life.'
