@And Brother I Hurt People
Dealing with death is never easy, when you’re the next in line to basically take over in a family, despite the other partner still alive, you feel don’t feel the weight until it’s finally rained that that person that has been with you for well over 20 years is gone forever and there was nothing you could do except prepare mentally for when it happens, except it never works because once you have finally hammered in your head “He’s gone and he’ll never come back” you want to convince yourself there was something there could be done and then comes the grief from the impotence, sometimes even self blaming because you want to believe there could be something you could’ve done and you didn’t do it.
Don’t worry, this means he’s on his way to fully accepting that life changing fact and as long as he has someone by his side, he’ll be fine in the meantime, even if he sometimes does go back in that mood because missing someone isn’t something you can just stop. Family is good, but they aren’t enough sometimes due to the nature of the wound. Everything about them reminds you of that person.
