Quotes from Kathryn Cooper's book The Defense Rests:
"...even though the hardest work of grief is done from within, the presence of loving family and friends supports, comforts and inspires us to somehow find a way to keep going in a life that doesn't look like ours anymore."
"It's ok to feel Not Very Ok At All sometimes, it's normal. All you need to do on those days when you feel NVOAA, is come find me, and tell me. Don't even feel like you have to hide the fact that you feel NVOAA. Always come and tell me because I will always be there."
(The Defense Rests, said by Piglet to Pooh from the book Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne)
