Nothing prepares us for the loss of a loved one.

My heart breaks for the pain of grief that you are feeling. Stay in that bed as long as you need.

There can be no doubt that the connection you shared transcends space and time. Something was created by your love that will never leave you.

What a glorious gift.

Stay encouraged in your grief. We love you.

❤️
