Ways Of Grieving

People grieve in different ways. Some show no signs of grieving, others express their grief in different ways.

What you see here's also a way of grieving. The mother of the young man in his mid twenties who's buried there is going to the cemetery on a regular basis, more than once a week I suppose. You can see that from the flowers on the grave. I've seen her a couple of times and (unfortunately) know what's happened.

She tries to ease the pain of loosing her son by covering the grave with fresh flowers and cleaning it like it would be her home.

This is another grave, very similar to the other one. A mother trying to deal with the pain of loosing his college student son in a car accident.

I don't know if this helps, I don't think so. It's hard to deal with sudden death, when you don't get to say goodbye, you don't get to tell them you love them or to make peace with them. It's hard to deal with remorse, guilt, the thought that you could have done something to avoid suicide but you didn't.
