We have talked about it at great length. You guys are really the first people I have talked this openly with about it. I've put my shit to the side to make sure they can express their feelings without feeling like mine mean more because I'm the one who had to do it. Everyone keeps asking how I'm doing, and my answer is "My family is fine, so I'm fine I suppose."

I'll work it out on my own (or with the help of you guys) but they need someone strong to tell them they aren't weak for feeling that way, so I'm just in listening mode.
