Pam,

Hmm...so many thoughts running through my head right now.

First...he's still talking to you...I think that means something...you two still have a connection.

Second...I know you have been expecting the papers, but I imagine you are still going into shock.

3rd...as such...I suspect it will be especially important for you to be gentle with yourself.

Give yourself time to grieve. Know that it is ok.

And when you have grieved enough...look forward to the life you have already begun to create for yourself.

A life full of joy, laughter, puppy kisses, and friendship.

I'm sending you some warm hugs.

PIB
