So much for returning to work

I was at work all of 5 minutes before I became a puddle of tears. I cried 3 times between the parking garage and the door to work. Then all it took was someone asking me how I was doing and the tears came rolling. Ugh. It is so much easier when people aren't nice to you. I really thought I was doing OK yesterday and was looking forward to returning to work. My asst mgr thought I was nuts for trying to return to work today anyway, so she let me go home. It is very easy to feel okay when you don't have to talk to anyone about things, eh?

Oh kaaron...I am so sorry sweetie. I hope you are feeling a little better soon. I wish our hearts and emotions healed as easily and quickly as our physical bodies do. Take as much time to grieve as you need. Somethings forever change us, and there is no set time for when someone should feel up to facing people. I will keep you in my prayers and know that I am thinking of you often.

Oh, hun, I just want to jump through the screen to give you a giant IRL hug. I am so sorry you are going through this. Take all the time you need to grieve your loss. (((Hugs)))

I totally understand that nice people = crying. I am the same way.

As a fairly stoic person, I've found myself crying more in this journey than at any other time in my life.Embrace the tears & emotions. I pray they are part of a healing process for you
