" She felt a wave of despair
coming toward her, ready to take her under. This had been happening on
and off since she lost them. Casey had learned that the best thing to do was
to brace herself for every rush of grief. She would let the sadness and
sorrow wash over her, smother her. She held on tight, knowing all she could
do was feel the pain until it passed. "
