Even some of my own family member do not understand why I am still so grief stricken. That think that I am that crazy old lady that is too self-absorbed in grieving over her son. When we are all together, everyone is laughing and acting like his death has not affected their lives. I am totally ashamed to say that my son's wife, Charity, does not even have a picture up of my son, and she was was married to him for 18 years. And when I visited there in September, she never even mentioned his name to me.
I have come to the conclusion that these people are not really insensitive - but they just don't know the pain and they don't realize that I am thinking of Bobby and missing him every hour of every day. They don't have a clue.
Some of them I can understand, they were not that close. But his wife - that one really hurts me so deeply. She is so insensitive! And she is that way even with her children. When Leah cries over her Dad, Charity actually gets aggravated. She thinks Leah has mental problems because she talks to her Dad. But I think SHE is the one with the problem. (Hey, I talk to Bobby everyday.)
I don't try to understand these people anymore. I gave up months ago.
Try not to let other people hurt you with their non-caring attitude. They just don't know the pain you are going through.
Love,
Patti
