CALL ME SNAKE

I was talking with my dad the other day about how much we both missed my uncle. Some other friends of ours have recently gone through a terrible loss in their family. I heard something in the radio last week on NPR that was relevant and could possibly be helpful. An author discussed what he’d heard from his coach following the death of his father many years ago. “You’ll never get over it,” the coach said. “But you will get used to it.” To me the words seem to have the ring of truth and perhaps in them one can find some sort of comfort.
