Ambiguous Loss
With the tragic loss of life on flight 370 this year, as we go to press, families and loved ones still await news and evidence, that ,as foretold in press interviews, flight 370 is lost and all life on board
” I know he must be dead – after all if he weren’t he’d be here he’d come home but without trace I cannot let it go . Some days I go to the ocean … I stand Iplead I bargain … give him up … if he really is out there somewhere ,give something back to us so that we know … but nothing … and on other days in quiet acceptance I visit our small churchyard and lay flowers at his memorial …. It may sound silly but as there was nothing to bury I put his teddy bear under there …. Just so there’s something but his room lies untouched … I am stuck I don’t want to accept it … if I do it really will be forever.”
