Lingering

So it's been a week since the child left our home.  It's been two weeks since Robin Williams took his own life.  I have so much to look forward to in the next few weeks, and yet this overwhelming sadness has taken over my life.  I feel empty, useless, a failure.

And with that public exclamation, I am calling my therapist.

Again, no worries needed.  I'm a survivor.
