I have never read anything that so perfectly describes this process. Just beautifully done. Contact me if you ever decide to write a book. I am speechless.

You know that. This post has been a long time coming, my friend. I am so glad you got a chance to write it out. I will never tell you the pain will go away, because I don’t know. In fact I don’t think grief ever really fades, we just find new ways of coping and sometimes momentarily forgetting. Because I have been in your same situation (and in some ways I feel responsible for yours) I can tell you that even though I didn’t love my him the way you love yours, I loved the thought of a complete (accepted as normal) family unit. I wanted that little girl too. Now all is uncertain, but so right. So right. Focus on your heart, your now-family and her. Honor your grief. And never stop loving him or yourself. </p> <p>I love you.
