landscaping therapy is good. it is great thet FMLA allows your DW time off to be w/ you.
losing one's mother is so hard. sorry you crashed. good thing there are hospitals and meds and doctors to help when one's brain 'goes off the rails' into mania. it sounds like a fairly normal reaction to have after such a devastating loss. there is only so much one can handle and after making the arrangements, deailng w/ the funeral, managing the estate affairs there's not much left in one's reserves.
remembering the laughter and love helped through that first hard year after losing ma. talking LOTS helped too. you'll find your way along through this grief.
keep taking care. day by day. hour by hour. go slowly and gently.
much love from Montana or Idaho or wherever KK's mansion is. ; )
