Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am a 37 yo administrative assistant in Texas. I have an almost-16 yo stepdaughter who lives 900 miles away, but we are very close. I live alone with the spoiled dog my husband and I adopted 3.5 years ago.
- About my Loss:
- My husband of 8.5 years passed away at the beginning of November 2016. He had a long history of depression but seemed to be doing better in recent months. Our lives were improving after some major setbacks over the last few years, including his liver transplant and struggle to go back to work. It came as quite a shock when I came home from work one day to find he had shot himself in the head. He was my best friend and we had so many plans together and I will never understand why he did what he did. He didn't even leave a note.

Stephanie, I just read you profile and my heart goes out to you! I truly will get easier to cope with as time goes on but it is a two steps forward one step back any time you are dealing with a loss, especially one so close and dear!! My heart and thoughts are with you. Thanks for your friend request!
Stephanie, I know what you mean about reading all the posts and wondering if it EVER gets even a little bit better...So sad, so depressing. What kind of way to live a life.
