I think they lie

People say "It gets easier", "It gets better with time". When?

It hasn't gotten any easier or any better! In fact, maybe it is harder.

My thoughts still are of my Dad. In fact, I think it is harder because I feel like it is supposed to be easier. Well, it isn't. I think they lie.

You know, it makes sense that it would get harder. I was watching a recent interview with Laci Peterson's dad, and he said that even though it's been over three years since her death, this last Christmas was the hardest of all of them. It's like after all the initial mayhem and hoopla after the death calms down, people stop calling and stop sending cards and it can leave you with a sense of loneliness. Almost like people have forgotten.

So yes, it totally makes sense that it is still just as hard if not harder even though time has passed.

I think it's easy for people to forget that you need support *all* the time, not just right after the death.

Hang in there, girl. I am thinkig of you and pullin' for ya.
