I truly, truly appreciate that you are inquiring about her. I'm glad to tell you how she's doing, if she needs anything, and any other details you may want to know. But what about how I'm doing?

The thing is, I'm not all too shaken up, just a little rattled. But I'd still really appreciate the question from some people, or maybe a hug, or something. Just so that I don't become completely numb about the whole thing, because I am definitely on my way there.
