I am doing ok, and thank you. I try my best to take care of myself and have gotten much better at identifying/modifying maladaptive coping methods. It's always a work in progress lol

I've worked around a lot of death as an ICU nurse, which I think has helped me with a little insight into "how to process". You're never ready when it's someone you love and especially when it's sudden, but seeing other people go through it regularly can give you a different view sometimes, I believe. But thank you again friend
