Thankfully I have never actually heard the words "Get over it". There have been many people, by their actions, who have made me feel like I should be "over it".
Well, here's the news flash - there is no "getting over" the loss of a child.
I read a great article about "getting over it" the other day. I encourage everyone, especially those who have never lost someone close to them, to read this article.
The loss of a parent is similar to the loss of a child. There is one significant difference - a parent had a lifetime of experiences - including going to school, getting married, having kids, etc. Losing a child also means losing all those experiences. It's a very different grief process, one that you never "get over".
