~~~~Ignorant Things People Say:
1. It’ll get better.
I’ve heard this advice the most.
And quite sincerely, it’s offensive.
I mean, how can it possibly be better without my sister?
Different. Yes.
Transformed. Sure.
But Never Ever better without her beautiful presence on
earth.
2. Time will heal.
When one is grieving & lamenting & weeping, one does not want to hear
this simplistic, stupid, unremarkable statement.
Cliché. Mechanical.
Think about it.
What will time heal?
What?
3.
Just
visualize she’s in China, and imagine how you’d fill that void.
True story.
The utmost voice of
ignorance & idiocy.
& just plain, unbelievably, incredibly, hideously sad.
4. What would
Kay want you to do?
I don’t care.
I’m mourning the loss of one of the greatest people
in my universe.
My soul-mate.
I don’t give a shit about that right now.
5. Don’t ask
yourself Why…Ask yourself Why Not?
No. No. No. Don’t say this.
Somebody recently stated this.
I wouldn’t lie.
I held my tongue, but desperately wanted to scream…
“You’d like
me to declare “Why Not…”
…. as my sister was pumped 3 times in the back of
the head with bullets?
Her boys have NO mother. I have NO sister. My parents have One less daughter.
Fuck you.
6.
If
you’re not feeling better in six months, you
may need medication.
I was told this the second week after Kay’s murder.
As I still walked in darkness & fog.
As I still could barely get out of bed.
And you’ve
been getting away with this all these years, Dr. Stinkin’ Thinkin’ ?
Shame on you.
He also looked me strait in the face and announced
in his Stinkin’ Thinkin’ know-it-all voice…
“She’s Not Coming Back.”
Thanks for that counsel, asshole.
