I know grieving are individual, but sometimes i wonder.....
My mother passed away two months ago. Of course I cried a lot the first couple of days, but want back to normal quite fast.
At the funeral i wasn't able to cry anymore. Thought it was beautiful, but not sad.
The weeks after has been busy helping my dad sorting out papers, clothing and the usual things.
I have been fighting with her from start until her death. Been there at every scan, dr. app., chemo session, operation. My dad was in denial in 16 months, and just wanted to go to work instead. He's been reacting on another level: visiting her grave every day, crying a lot etc.
I feel the pressure was taken from my shoulder, and somehow relieved....At the same time i don't feel a need for visiting the grave, or crying. I keep telling myself its because I was there all the time, I knew this was going to happen, and i'm strong.
But is it the truth? Or am I just not grieving yet? I think this actually is a bit too "easy"
Please share your experiences with me
Brgds,
