Very true. After losing Jackson I really did feel like some of my closest friends became strangers. I don't think they meant to on purpose. It was more that they couldn't relate to me anymore and they didn't know what to say or do, so they ended up avoiding me and doing nothing. In their defense, they were probably scared of saying the "wrong thing" so they thought it would be better to leave me alone. But, that is exactly how I felt... alone.
On the bright side, I have made so many new friends that have been wonderful! I am so grateful to the many new friends that have really helped me in my grief journey. I wouldn't be here today without them!
