Rose I understand that you had accepted at one point that your significant other was going to pass.

The kind of acceptance that I am describing in the realization of actual absence is once that presence in really gone. It’s not a going to be gone, it is gone and the finality of how that changes the way one navigates their life.

When someone is part of your every day life it takes time to adjust to that person not being there and never will be again. There is a lost sensation that comes with that.
