Went to the wake

That was difficult.  I lost it once we got in the main room because his mother's mother showed up and she ran right over to her and melted.  We were asked by the kids father not to say anything to the mother.  He gave M his business card and said he'd like to talk with us in a couple weeks.  He did thank us. 

I honestly do feel better now though.

  • Glad that it gave you a bit of closure and that you feel better about the situation....

    I'm so glad you got a sense of relief from it, no matter how difficult it was.  Like I said before Sheri, if it was my family member, I would be eternally grateful to you for sitting by him and holding his hand and reassuring him.  No one wants their child to go through that alone and scared.  You did something amazing that many people wouldn't have done.

  • Very brave, my dear.  I know it must have been hard, but you did good.
  • I too would have been very grateful to you for giving my child comfort in his last moments, and I hope that you have gotten some closure from attending tonight.

  • You done good, kid.  Wink  I'm glad you were able to go, and I'm sure it eases the family's pain to some extent to know he wasn't alone.

  • I'm glad you feel a little better!  Such a terrible and sad situation!

    Hopefully they will contact you when the wound isn't SOO deep!

    Big hug to you lady!

  • I'm glad you went and I'm glad you are feeling better about what happened.
