It can't be easy on you, but I believe we all have to grieve for losing our M, at least as they once were, just like we mourn for any other loss in our lives. You can't move on without addressing that part of the process.

BTW, I posted on my thread. Please take a look when you get a minute. Anyone else who cares to check it out as well. I need all the ideas and encouragement I can get at this point.

BIM,

Yes, she is very much into appearances (hence the "It's disrespectful for GIMA not to wear his wedding ring"). Yes, her family knows. And, yes, she would continue the sleeping arrangements despite them being there. And, yes, this isn't a walk in the park, but I'm handling it as best I can.

Thanks for your input, and I'll drop by your thread in a sec.
