1 Year
I truly do not know how I have survived a full year without Bridget. My world has been shattered. Everything that I was…everything that Bridget taught me to be…has just simply vanished. Writing has always brought me so much joy…even during the difficult times. However, now my words are lost and scrambled. Today, while working through a difficult onslaught of emotions…I found myself reading the words I wrote for Bridget’s funeral. I am grateful to Ruby, our bereavement counselor/Hospice Chaplain, for sharing my words when I was unable to do so myself. I wanted to share them with you today. Grief is often times unbearable. Thank you for keeping us going as we hit the one year mark. Bridget Elizabeth My beautiful Bridget. Since you went to heaven, the world has seemed so dark. For so many years I lived and breathed YOU. From spending every day together in summertime, late nights where you refused to sleep, endless doctors appointments, and the final days of your life…I have loved you.
