[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate using the word normal so maybe typical is better what is a typical emotional response to the loss of a parent? My spouse lost their dad and they cried and were upset a few day but then went back to normal. Like it didn't happen. Would you say that's a typical emotional response? Or are they not dealing with it?[/quote] Is the other parent alive or not? Are they handling the funeral, paperwork, various arrangements? If not, does your spouse have to help make arrangements with their sibling? Give a eulogy speech, call friends & family, handle the estate, clean up & sell the home apt unit? Who is handling all of that? Often that person has to grieve in cycles and get $hit done at the same time. [/quote] This[/quote]
