Widow’s garble: I asked a friend how her widowed stepmother is doing. Fine apparently – because she has got herself out to the cinema and been to the dentist. We drag ourselves through the motions of normal life because we have to, and our reward is that everyone thinks we're 'fine'. #widow #grief #lifeafterlove
