And what does he say? Before going to bed, he likes looking at my mom's picture......he is still grieving and probably doesn't know how to express his feelings. When you think about it, he has all these things going against him:
1. Guys aren't good at expressing themselves especially when in pain
2. His generation dictates bearing all and any hurt and toughing it out
3. Cannot burden children
4. Still have regrets about letting my mom smoke
Overall, he seems to be ok and keeping himself busy. But every once in awhile he surprises me with his sentimentality.
