The edge of the shock and pain of grief is wearing off but no one is offering as much comfort as they did initially.<br />I notice I don't cry as often, but still remember the first day I didn't cry... and I cried the entire next day because of it.<br />My life presses on without him. I used to put a dab of his cologne on the pillow next to mine but since our 100-lb lab sleeps there now, the aroma of his cologne is outweighed by Cocoa's drools.
