How could she say that she was ok, knowing deep in her heart that she was not? In truth, she had no idea how and when she would be ok with all of this.
How long would she keep feeling this pain that would not stop creeping into her heart and mind without warning? Suddenly, she could not breathe, like a fish, unexpectedly thrown into the land without a water source, gasping for air.
Just when she thought she was getting better. Her heart would abruptly stop, then an incredible pain would grip her tightly, rendering her immobile, unable to move, think or feel.
She just felt like dying.
Dani watched her mother in this state, only feeling probably half of what she felt. She could not imagine what her Mom was experiencing, knowing the pain she was personally going through.
"Mom, shall we go home?" Dani concernedly asked after the burial ceremony had ended.
Thanks
