Grief is a Motherfuc%@#
The foundation of what you built your life on is rocked. The very essence of your being. Who and what you identify with and as—is being rattled. There is no stable ground.

Thirty Days
It was about 10 minutes before I was going to say bye to the boys and leave for a few hours, come back to pick them up. Grab some groceries or maybe just a quick dinner. Get ready for bed. Wake up. Go to school. Come home and have dinner with daddy. About ten minutes before that regular Sunday routine could take place is when I got the call that changed my life forever. The world immediately started spinning, but slowly. I was in shock. And then I realized what the hell was happening.
