โI was in the same place a year and a half ago. Back then, the funeral was in April. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces.โ
โIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was her phone still charging on the shelf. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ
โYou will get through the first anniversary. I do not know how, but you will. Some days you will not answer messages, and that is okay. Some days you will cry in the car. That is okay too. Just keep Abeer close and let your parents help. Do not be afraid to say his name. He was here. He matters. You matter. One day you will laugh again, and it will surprise you. That is not betrayal. That is life.โ
โHello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Back then it was cooking for one. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. Be gentle with yourself.โ
