Well, here it is...Nancy left this world April 29th, 2015. I know that's still 27 days away, but it taints the entire month. All the things we did that month that should have been heralds of what was to come. I am seriously depressed at this writing, much more so than usual. If I had the means handy I would not feel the slightest bit of hesitancy in helping myself cross over. But, my dear bride would not have that. She would want me to buckup and carry on so. of course, I will, to honor the memory of the woman who defined my life for so many years. But, still, it is a very bad day for me. I will be glad when it is finished and the sun sets on my sorrow.  I can then spend more time worrying about all the home repairs that are desperately needed but are not finished or even started. The "Death Month" has my full attention and I can only bide my time and take it as easy as possible to get through it. Ativan helps a lot.  May each and every one of you find the peace and calm that we all seek in our lives as we muddle through this horrible journey without end until we are blessed to be reunited with our loved ones for eternity.   Mel

Love and prayer to you Mel.  Can not imagine how you feel.  I am at my "day 68".  The pain and loneliness crushes me.  I want to go and be with her.  If only that were God's will.

 

Each month that passes, I miss my dear husband more. I feel your pain, and wish you comfort. Are you going to do any kind of ritual? It may help to honour your pain with some token like a hummingbird feeder, or chimes that help you feel more connected between today and yesterday.

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
