2. It's hard

To get your head around. We go into national stages of grief. Denial is the first phase for many. We just can't cope. It is beyond us. We can and should limit our exposure to the graphic horror or such an event. Try to absorb it slowly and learn the details at your own pace. After, Sandy, and the Mall shooting, our country as a whole has taken a big hit. Even if we are not on the front lines I still put out energy in empathy and sorrow for our fellow Countrymens' great grief, and loss. ( I don't know if the English is correct on that. I suspect it is not.)

We need to psychologically duck and cover, for now. I think I know what you mean. I feel numb.

What would be the correct grammar for countrymen possessive? I don't think it looks right. Sorry.
