    Patience.
    Deep breaths when you need to grip your way up.
    I have lost two very important people.
    I does get less, though when they enter your thoughts it is very emotional.
    Yes it will get easier, as time goes on but the memories remain strong.
    Concentrate on those times you were smiling not the one when you were crying.
    I am so sorry this happened.

    Does it get better..no..you will always miss him and grieve in some way..but do we really ever want to stop that..because I think it means we forget them..which I would never want to do..but time soothes the hurt.time lessens the intensity of the pain...after time....the thoughts turn to memories that bring smiles to our lips more than tears to our eyes..my opinion only...

    The sequence of events on the day my grandmother died still plays very vividly to this day, and this December will mark 8 years since she died. I think we do grow accustomed to it but don't think we'll be 100% the same again.

    I know the pain so bad from losing my grandmother that I'd be willing to share a hug with you in order to convey that I understand your pain. I believe there's a reason we're still ticking (figuring it out is an ongoing quest, though)
