Profile Information

About Me:
I am a 63 year old widow, with an autistic child and three other kids with their own sadnesses and life ordeals.
About my Loss:
I was widowed 3 years ago. My husband died of cancer. I had to soldier on. There was really no time for really grieving; no time to stop and think... not that I wanted to. It was just too painful. On top of the loss of my husband, my family was falling apart in a dramatic and heart breaking way, I needed to sell the home which was old and huge. Then buy another, and renovating to make it liveable.

Once the urgency was gone, I found all sorts of stuff was upsetting me, especially looking at photos of the departed. It slowly dawned on me that I was finally beginning to grieve properly. To allow myself to feel. Allow myself to think. Allow myself to cry.

I logged onto this site as I think I need to understand what is"normal" for a widow. And to be able to unburden. Cant to my kids. Don't feel free to say much to friends. They either don't get it or don't know how to handle me. And I don't want to drive them away when o most need others. Oh God I am lonely and sad, and depressed. And sometimes quite overwhelmed with all that runs around in my head.

My mom died 4 months ago

My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked. She died from lung disease. Ironic.I was fine at the funeral. Planning. Talking to everyone. I thought u handled it great. Now 4 months later, I’m a mess. Some days I’m perfectly fine, but others I can’t walk down the street without crying. I keep thinking that I haven’t talked to her in a while & I…See More
