Saw the play... and cried


Last night Ernie and I went to see Peggy's play. It was very well done and I cried at two parts. The sadness portrayed by the dad got me first and then the sadness from the grandma ( peggys part) did it again. There was a comparison made between the loss of a young child from an accident and the loss of an adult child from suicide.... and the comment was " he was still my child"


The lesson is the way you start to deal with this pain of death of a child, and peggys part ( Nat ) said, the hurt never goes away, it just gets less of a burden and becomes a brick in your pocket that you can carry around. Sometimes you forget ,but then you reach into your pocket and there it is...


Very well done... Great job Peggy!
