a waking unconsciousness

The stunning, shocking loss of her husband had hit Mary with the stunning force of a blow to the skull.  She would never forget when she'd gotten the news, from the police.  Incredulity had both paralyzed and saved her sanity, creating an awful sort of waking unconsciousness; she had lived the next few minutes after she'd heard in the interstices between believing and not believing that her beloved husband was gone forever. The Accused by Lisa Scottoline.


Zach this is EXACTLY how I felt when I learned you had died, only it wasn't just minutes... but days and even weeks of feeling this way... a waking unconsciousness.  Even now, at almost 11 weeks, some days I still do.  The reality of living the rest of my life without you hurts.... I know it will ease with time, but for now it's still so hard.


Missing you...
Love you more,
Mom
