But I have no choice but to push forward. Still got 2 daughters that need me. All you can do is be there for him. Everyone grieves differently. Each member of my family handled it in a dif way.

That's another lesson I learned in the waiting room today. My buddy was bawling. Her mother acted like she would come out of that room at any minute and almost virtually carefree. I had to keep reminding myself that it wasn't my place to judge how someone handles things that my purpose isn't to inject my opinions but to simply provide support where I can.
This was no easy task as I am very opinionated and I think fighting the urge to say what comes to mind took a lot out of me.
