This link was helpful. When the speaker talked about meeting someone in their grief....to truly get on their level. How true...

Thankyou for all of your kind comments. I have given it a lot of thought and soul searching. My husband even came to me in a dream to say to take the time off.  It is the first time I have taken a true leap of faith and I feel very at peace. 

Hi,

My name is K and I lost my husband nearly 4 mo ago. I am 38. We have two young children. I have extremely limited help, both of my parents have passed. I have been on my own for awhile since my husband had not been in the house the past year due to substance abuse. I have felt very strongly about taking time off since he passed. I have zero time unless it is late at night and I am drowning. I feel like I need to take some time to soul search and do things like swim or volunteer and find me- so that I can be the best Mom to my kids. Has anyone taken a significant time away from work?
