I often feel we are on a predictable journey, from the various threads I read and the timelines, we cycle through denial, depression then the anger sets in and we go through cycles of this amidst gaining slow acceptance. I think it is wise to avoid her if you feel you might not even be able to be civil. Remember you may not feel this angry in just a few days, the cycles are unpredictable. Just focus on yourself, you dont want to ever show her she still has power over you. Anger is not detachment, its a step in the process I think.
