These letters have been healing, which I guess is why I decided to post them - maybe for someone else who is hurting in a similar fashion. It was always comforting to me to hear of someone else's feelings and think, "Oh! So...you mean, I'm NOT crazy!?"

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 04:39:15 +0000 http://curlykew.com/?p=51#comment-53 Heidi, At the funeral I hugged you & said, "I can't imagine losing my Best Friend". I hurt so much for you. I knew how I felt, and still do, losing Lisa. It was incomprehensible to me how you must feel. How brave & heart breaking at the same time to read your letters. My heart hurts for you. I can only pray that this will be healing for you. I am sure with every milestone in your life, there is a hole. God Bless you & be with you, always. I truly believe Lisa is with you & watching over you. I am sure, she misses you as much as you miss her. Thank you for opening such a personal part of your heart to all of us. Heidi,

They helped me get through probably the toughest year of my life, so I’m grateful others can read and maybe gain some comfort in their own areas of grief. I miss her so. And thank you for reading.

These are beautiful letters, and perhaps the most frank and honest accounting of grief I've ever had the privilege to read. Thank you for sharing.
