One day, Stacey’s counselor told me it could take three to five years to pull her through the grieving process.
My reaction was, “God save me!” When at wit’s end, HE was my only hope. I learned to use all the subtle hints HE provided to answer my current questions.
Early in her grieving, Stacey acted out her anger. Most children can’t express pain in words, so they demonstrate it. I learned that from my grief counselor and her.
Stacey shared her suffering with us in the following manner. She scratched, tripped, and irritated her new family. In rage, she challenged my discipline and requirements for self-control.
Many times, I thought, “Helen Keller” instead of Stacey because the girl’s bitterness and anguish blinded her to an out reached hand. She grabbed the appendage clawing it. She appeared as a trapped, wild animal. Her grief appeared that deep!
That is how Stacey’s aunt described the INITIAL YEARS AFTER she inherited the young relative due to her parents’ deaths.
