Exhausting Morning

Hugh and I did it.  We wrote down every single detail we could remember from Tripp's story.  It was completely exhausting and emotionally draining.  We took turns writing.  It was too hard to write for any extended periods.  We did a lot of crying.

I really think the brain forgets things to protect you.  If I was thinking of all of these details, all the time, I would never heal from the loss of Tripp.  By forgetting some of the finer points, I feel like my brain is helping me heal.

I know that I won't re-read that document for a very long time.  But it will be there when I need it.
