Not very generous, huh? But I guess it's a sign I'm still grieving. But obviously grieving in my own imaginatively violent way!Megan Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10141326713668743964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-28183712607824121022009-10-06T11:30:58.910+13:002009-10-06T11:30:58.910+13:00you have been so strong going through all of this,...you have been so strong going through all of this, everyone grieves differently for their loss and the longer the medical stuff is sometimes the more you are "over It". <br /><br />i found the physical invasion of my body the hardest bit of my loss... the scans, the operation, the poking and proding.<br /><br />And I'm with Deborah on the crying in the shower....Azlemedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09817866704889651040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-79035467896363356882009-10-06T11:25:01.450+13:002009-10-06T11:25:01.450+13:00Being a solitary, introverted type, I much preferr...Being a solitary, introverted type, I much preferred to do my weeping and howling in private when we were dealing with our infertility.<br /><br />Part of what grief counsellors are doing is helping people to articulate their feelings. If you are an articulate and verbal person, then you probably will not need extra help in order to do this.<br /><br />Also, if you are highly literate, then you may do better with a book discussing grief and grief processes, so you can do it all in your own time and space.<br /><br />Showers are good for crying in.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14182573274494086468noreply@blogger.com
