thank you.

I do try to sympathasize with those suffering a similar loss.
I just have a hard time believing a grieving mom would throw her child’s favorite toy into the wash.
I would think most moms would hang onto that thing and smell it a dozen times everyday.

I know that’s the way I would be. I remember being shocked when my father-in-law got rid of all of my mother-in-law’s things - clothes, jewelry, everything - less than 2 weeks after she died. I guess people have different reactions to things, but I could never come to terms with that. It seemed very cold to me.

I’ve often thought about that since then, if something happened to my husband, it would take me some time before I could get rid of everything of his. But I guess everyone is different.
