Fine tuning things and making adjustments. Averaging about 40 minutes of draw time a day. I wanted to say a few things about Karens posts that I share here. I don't share every single post she made over the last few years. I share most everything she posts about Joel, but again not everything. Some I feel are just too private. I share the heartache and I want you to share in it too. I want you to read her broken heart and understand that there are many moments in a day that are overwhelming for the grieving.
I want you to reach out to your friends and family, strangers too when you see them struggling or even on a good day. I want you to offer condolences, ask if they need help with anything, take them a meal, offer to take their children for a few hours, or simply talk to them about their departed loved ones. Just talk to them, find out what they need. I think a lot of us don't fully grasp the magnitude of losing a loved one. Until you actually suffer the heartbreak, we can't wrap our heads around it. Step out, step up and support the grieving. I have suffered loss. This is why I draw our departed. You are not forgotten in my eyes, you're loved ones have not faded away. I see you, I send you love. I do what I can do for you.

It is impossible to find all of the pieces of a broken heart
