Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
I'm having a bad day today but most mornings are awful. My husband of 55 years has been gone now for 6 months. In some respects that time has gone by really fast but I remember every detail of that awful time as if I am going through it right now. And I am very bitter about the circumstances surrounding his death. He went in the hospital to have a week of Chemo and he never left. He developed 3 different infections while there and they literally sucked the life right out of him. He had several health issues and I want to believe that he is in a better place with no more pain. However, I still want him here every single day. Yesterday I went to a birthday party for my niece and found it very difficult not putting my husbands name on the card.
Everything around my house has his fingerprint on it. I look at something and think....Oh I remember when he did this or that. Another way that I'm feeling the lose is little things like opening a jar that I can't get, going shopping with me or for me, watching a movie together on TV. I am so lonely and yet I can't seem to move on. I would much rather be with him.

Morgan, I received your response to my post, I responded, and then promptly lost everything somehow. I just want to say that I really appreciate the things you have said to me and I see you trying to help others.
I had a similar experience with having my car fixed. I left there feeling very vulnerable. There are so many first....had several parties this weekend. I went to my nieces birthday party and I wanted to sign her card "Aunt Marsha and Uncle Tom". I pray every morning that he will walk down the hall and say " well Good Morning".
Our journeys are so different and then again so much the same.
I have days when I just don't want to go on.
