While i have loved doing all of these it has been with a tinge of sadness.

I knew i would regress or go through a few of the stages of grief again. I know that helps me slowly heal.


Sounds like you are doing pretty well considering NZ. Setbacks seem pretty mandatory, I know I still struggle too but the ups are getting better and the lows are getting less low. Keep doing what you're doing, you sound like a great Dad.
