From all that I've ever read from Janet Wilder, especially lately, I
can tell that she's a "survivor" and a strong person. She will keep
on going just fine. Time does heal too (unlike some others have
said). It's not about forgetting, it's about time healing the
immediate hurt, loss, and feeling overwhelmed and often miserable.
Later on you are mostly left with the good memories of the time you
did have together. :-D
