About Me:
I am a female, 72 years old, retired teacher who just had 55th year of marriage. Have 4 children, 7 grand children and 9 great grandchildren. I have a dog and consider myself active.
About my Loss:
My husband, 73, died of an aggressive form of dementia March 9. The first week was OK with a lot of people around, now not so much. I am more sad and there is a constant reminder everywhere. A memorial gathering is planned for next week. I was his caregiver for 5 years until he went into a residential setting and lived only 6 months. Just don't know where to turn. Grief support groups not available in my area. I went to a dementia support group. I journal feelings but doesn't help.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection.
