Funeral day and cold fronts

This is the first big cold front since my return to work

from the surgery I had one year ago today.

It is not a good day.

It is also funeral day for Sean.

It is not a good day.

No matter how hard I think this day is,

it is nothing compared to the day this will be

for Sean's family and loved ones.

If I didn't have the funeral to attend,

I think I would have to stay home today.

It has been a most unbearable night.

Yet I will make it there then probably come home

after the funeral instead of returning to work.

I want to be there for support of Sean's family

but also for the support of my BG.

Many of her graduating class will be at this funeral.

It will also be the first time she sees many of her peers

since acknowledging she is gay.

I know this probably doesn't bother her at all

but I feel as her Mother, I need to stand by her

and be her support. Not to mention how hard it

is for young adults to say goodbye to one of their own.

Just puts some perspective on the life of a young adult.

Has them understand that life is short and

living a good life always is important.

Once again, I ask for prayers for Sean's family.

This will not be an easy day,

probably the hardest they have ever faced.
