For those out there who have never lost anyone close, there is more to your reaction than just tears. I was immediately sick to my stomach. The feeling of nausea took over my body. From Tuesday when I heard the news through Wednesday, I barely ate anything. By Thursday morning I was hungry but eating ended up being a bad idea. I decided on a protein shake, I usually have one every morning. I made my way to the kitchen, mixed up my protein shake, and down it went. It tasted pretty good. Within two minutes it was on my bedroom floor. I couldn't even make it to the bathroom. My husband, being the great guy he is, cleaned it up for me. Now the tears started and I was a huge grief stricken mess. I felt like the poor little sick kitty in the photo, helpless, sad, overwhelmed, and looking for answers.
