Here is an example: My wife had some horses, and somebody needed to take care of them after she died. My youngest son sacrificially went down to the barn and fed the horses every day for the entire first year when I just could not emotionally go down there. That barn represented so much pain for me because it was a place Michal Ann so cherished.
