[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom had been increasingly sick so it wasn’t a shock. I wouldn’t say it affected my work at all except for some logistical issues to do with taking time off when she was ill, dying, and dealing with the funeral. Even though we were very close, I wouldn’t say that dealing with the grief was difficult or traumatic. I miss her, but when I think about her it is sad rather than gut-wrenching. I think my wife was similar about her father passing.[/quote] I feel exactly this way. My mom died about 18 months ago and i miss her - especially right after there were a million things my son would do that I would want to tell her about and got really sad when i couldn't. That's eased up a little. Right now I'm going through some job stuff and would love to call her up and bounce things off of her. But i'm not incapacitated by grief and never really was since she was sick off and on for 6 years.[/quote]
