There is not set time limit for a person to grieve over the loss of an immediate family member. As for the average person, it deends on thier work situation and the company that they work for,
for me personally, I was able to take a week paid off of work. If I needed more time, I could take all that I need, but it would not have been paid. And just to let you know, my brother's 13th anniversary of his death just passed on the 11th of this month, and I still grieve his loss. The week that I took off after his death was enough time for me to pull myself together, and to get over the initial loss, the shock of it, but the grieveing process is different and one can not put a time limit on it. It's just humane nature.
And IMO, I thought it was remarkabkle that the week after her loss, she was back at work with her husband. So kudos to her. After suffering a tremendous shock, the loss of a sister, and being pregnant, I think she is doing great by getting out there and doing her "job" whether it's one engagment or 12, she is not sitting at home having a pity party for 1 which, again, IMO she is entitled to do.
