    You have made it through one week. A very hard week that makes no sense to you. Your focus now is your survival. Plain and simple. One of Michael’s family who has not been kind to me was at his service and I was stressed about it as you are about this aunt. The service was for Michael - to honor and respect his life, so I chose to take the high road out of respect for him. Thanked brother for coming, the condolences, and moved on. Auntie is there for you, not the other way around. The acoustic music sounds beautiful and I love that it will be played by family. You will make it through even though it seems impossible right now. Breathe in, breathe out and stay focused on how you want his service to honor him. Will prayfor your peace.
