Today’s Grief Face

Self photo, August 31st, 2020

My grief face today. I haven’t been writing lately and I worked too much over the last week, and I feel a breakdown building up.  I’m so exhausted and this only magnifies my grief. Is this my life? No wife, no baby, no real reason not to work too much.  I know I should be my own reason, but some days it is a struggle. The heat of the summer is finally breaking,  and my heart is breaking with it because Sara loved the fall so much. We met in the fall of 2015, late October. This is my first fall without her…

Wednesday is 10 months since her death.  Soon will be the anniversary of when we discovered the cancer had spread to her brain – her 2nd of 3 hospitalizations last year,  this one involving 10 days of radiation to her brain. 

Fall has always been my favorite, but it’s just not the same now. Nothing is the same.
