You seem to be going from one strength to the next, Speed3. I'm so glad
that you are coming along well.

Yes, I've had experiences that have had to be endured and recovered from.

The first was the death of my father. My husband said to me, "go there and do all you can". That enabled me to get through it, though it was a
profound grief, and it took me years to see it all in perspective.

The second was the death of my mother. I had cared for her for several years before her death and knew what to expect. I had an unusual experience of sensing that her spirit just passed by me and told me that she was fine and not to grieve. I did recover in time.

Third: I lost my husband; I probably never will recover completely from his loss, but knowing him was the most wonderful experience I ever had, and he left me a wonderfully spirited and nice daughter. With two beautiful grandchildren, I have learned contentment.

His estate was such that I didn't have time to grieve initially, and the doctor
said it was probably a good thing that I didn't have time to truly grieve in the first months following his death.

You will learn that, too, even more quickly if you find the thugs who were
the sellers of the heroin.

Tragedy can make us stronger people, Speed3, as we work through it.

Take care, Speed3, and continue your efforts to search for the drug dealers.

Nice to see you posting in your strength. Prayer going up now for your continued growth in strength.
