Marie Osmond's Son Commits Suicide

[Andrew, Jr.]

Apocalipstic,

I have to say that I was a bit surprised that Marie went right back to work after Michael was buried. I understand that life goes on, and you move on. But for me, and what I have experienced, I couldn't have gone back to school that week after the funeral. What was Marie like? Is this because of the faith she practices? It doesn't make sense to me.

I've know different people who have coped with their grief by keeping busy. If someone is a "workaholic", that's going to be how they cope. The hardest time for most people is after the funeral of their loved one. Before and during there are arrangements to be made, family and friends present to keep one occupied. I don't find this all that unusual. Might not be how I'd cope. But not unusual for many people.
