“At the risk of sounding trite… the ‘firsts’ are the worst. What are the ‘firsts’? These are the occasions, large and small, that must be faced for the first time after your loss. These include, but are certainly not limited to; the first of any of the major holidays (secular and religious); the first Mother’s and Father’s Day; the first wedding anniversary and the first birthdays (yours, theirs and your children). There are actually two separate and distinct kinds of ‘firsts’. There are the ‘firsts’ that show up on the calendar, in the malls and in Hallmark stores – the major holidays that completely surround you everywhere. There are then the ‘firsts’ that are not ‘holidays’ so much as they are significant first-time events after death. One of the first things that will cross your mind after the death (if it hasn’t already) is, ‘How ever am I going to survive the ‘firsts’…ANY of them?” Get answers, great suggestions on how to face your ‘firsts’ and much more: amazon/Widows-Wear-Stilettos-Practical-Emotional/dp/0882823396/ref=tmm_pap_title_0
