You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Angie,
I am so very sorry that you are going through this. I know that it is not easy. Please know that you are not alone and that there are many friends here for you. If you haven't already, you may want to look into some grief support groups. Compassionate friends helped me and my ex-husband tremendously when we lost Avery. www.compassionatefriends.org You are right about your husband... it isn't real to them until they see the hard truth. I also think they are trying to keep it together for the women in the beginning because of the intial emotional and physical pain they are experiencing. You both need to be there for one another.... lean on each other. Don't be surprised if you take turns having bad days. It may be difficult at first, but talking about it helps you heal. Every bit of your experience. When you notice it becomes easier to talk about it without the tears welling up in your eyes with the first word out of your mouth... you'll also notice that the pain will have changed a bit and it will be easier to deal with.
Please... if you need someone to talk to, let me know. I am more than willing to listen. I have been where you are more than I like to think about... and I know the hurt you are feeling. When everyone else thinks you should move on and live your life... just know that there are others in the world who know what you are feeling and no matter what... your life will never move on the same way. Yes, you move on... but your life has changed.... and so has everything about you as a person.
You are in my prayers, sweetie. Many hugs and lots of love and understanding.
