We suffered (me and my husband) a financial setback from the loss of a partnership. For the longest time we felt like we were victim of cheating, that didn’t really help much in recovering from it; on the contrary only made things worse. Just getting through the next hour, day and week seemed hard enough; and it was then that I realized, we need to maintain a perspective and not panic. We need to rebuild our business. And we did. Today, we are back into the business, we are not a 100% there yet, but we are taking baby steps towards it and we are sure we will get there soon! I’d like people who are reading this to know, that yes, the emotional and physical effects of a major financial loss are similar to the grief you feel over the loss of a loved one; but we are far more resilient than we give ourselves credit for. So yes, the process of recovery will be hard, but it can be done!
