In the Lakota/Sioux tradition, a person who is grieving is considered most wakan, most holy. There's a sense that when someone is struck by the sudden lightning of loss, he or she stands on the threshold of the spirit world.

Dear God, I love you, Lance," he whispers when he pulls out of the kiss. "Don't ever leave me."
