To all my friends on this web-site.

I want to thanks all of you for being so understanding as we are all in the same boat. The outside world will never understand what we are going through. It's been 4 years and I still am griefing. I see a therapist every week. I keep hoping I can feel better, but she did tell me that their just ins't a pill for this problem.

I feel all we can do is just one day at a time.

Love to you all, Linda

Jennifer,

My kids are adults and my crying distresses them, so I know you don't want to, but it happens and you can't let yourself get upset when it does.  You are a human and have very raw feelings.  If you hide it too much they will think they need to hide it and not show it like you are.  They will feel like they can't express their hurt to you, and they need to be able to do that.  My husband died 8 January and I still forget sometimes that he is gone.  I have called out for him and I talk to him frequently, it happens.  Of course it was a bad day, they all will be until they aren't.  Be kind to yourself.

KIM,

     I'm so sorry for all of your grief.     It's too bad about your family.    I'm sure they loved Jack.    He sounds like a person that everyone loved, because he made everyone feel like family.   We lost our son when Joe was still alive.    Yes, it was devastating, but I had Joe to grief with me, and we both knew that Jonathan was with Jesus.   I had someone to help me through it, but losing Joe left an empty house.   I understand what you feel about coming home to an empty house.

(I'm going to send you a message)

Jennifer,

I am sorry you are in this hell too.  Many of us here know what it is like. {{{{hugs}}}}

It's almost 3 months since Annette passed. It seems my 'numb' time has ended and I'm back to despair. I stare at pictures and don't understand how she can't be here. I don't feel whole now. James is 14 year old and offers me sympathy and support. He is so strong. Im trying to do things, but my confusion and despair keep interrupting. righting this helps because I don't know anyone in my life who understands this.

I lost my Bob a year and a half ago and it still feels like yesterday. We were high school sweetheartstudents married almost 42 yrs. I have an only child an adult son. I am so list now and I work on trying to realize he would want me to go on but I am just not getting there. I meant to say h,s. Sweet hearts, my son is very lost without his dad. We both are like the day we lost him our lives stopped. Our plans on retirement together will not happen now. My Mum passed 18 months before my husband. I got a double whammy. Kim I know how you feel, still want to see him come home from work with his smile hello. Holding hands when we went to sleep. They tell us things get better. I guess they will but Kim we will always miss them. I cry a lot. I get mad and then try and think of a happy memory.  Unless someone has lost their love of their life they can'take understand. People will try and help but it does not help. Friends mean well but again they don't understand  our loss, I will keep you in my prayers and we can keep in touch here. ☺

Kim, I can see why you miss him so much. He was a wonderful man who touched a lot of lives, that's how my husband, Joe, was. Everywhere he went he touched someone's life. He had a gift of encouragement, and made strangers feel like they were family!

I'm right there with you all. I'm not interested in taking care of myself. I don't have the energy or desire right now. I'm doing good to get up in the morning...

How do we continue on when The One who chose to be with us for the remainder of our lives is no longer here? The One who has experienced life's ups and downs with you? The One who has raised a family with you? The One who shared happy as well as sad times with you? The One whose mere presence made everything OK again? I know these questions are unanswerable but this is where I find myself these days. Love to all who are unfortunately in the same situation.
