“It doesn’t get easier, Grace, so I’m not going to tell you that it does. It will never be easy. It’s like living with a big black hole in your world, but it gets okay for you to remember, not so painful.’ He unconsciously placed his hand over his heart. ‘It’s as if the you that you were before gets replaced with a new you. How you feel, the hurt, the pain, the longing, the sadness, it becomes part of you and you kind of grow to fit the new you, where all those terrible feelings and that energy-sapping grief are your new normal.’ He looked across at her. ‘Does that make any sense?’ Grace”
