For what it's worth - years ago, while I was still teaching, my dad died. We had been estranged for years, and his death was especially difficult. I took the bereavement time off to deal with it all, and one day, i had an overwhelming sense of peace, calm and comfort. It was then that I knew my colleagues at the university where I taught were sending love, light and peace. I will never forget that.

Love and compassion can do wonders. You are not in this alone, Koz. I hope you feel the same strength I felt that day. We are with you.
