Thanks Vince. I am sorry about your wife. My eight weeks seems like a lifetime. I imagine your six weeks does to. I am just getting through the days. I had stopped working to take care of him and I am a counselor so now I have no clients to see nor do I think I could sit and listen to someone about their problems. Am afraid I would burst into tears and tell them about me. This is just miserable. Everyone tells me it gets better. It HAS to!!!!

Hello, My wife pasted away a little over 6 weeks ago.I have gone thru weight loss no appetite,no sleep,crying out bursts headaches so bad my eyebrows hurt and lonelyness and more tears.Then I get up and go to work.I can tell you its a slow lonely walk,but things will come around when your ready.There are still parts of the house I try to avoid,I'll get to them when and only when I'm ready.This is the 1st time I've been thru a summer in 19 years alone and it hurts and is lonely .I really have no idea what to do,but I'm slowly trying to move forward.many times I lean on the Lord for help,sometimes I scream at him.It makes me feel better.Abby go slow do things at your pace,lean on the Lord and have some compassion for youself.We'll get thru this time of sorrow.I'll say a prayer for you to feel better.God bless

Abby, I sent you a friendship request. You can find it on your page. Once we are friends I can send you a private message. My husband died last year from Melanoma also. I am so so sorry you are where I was then. So very sorry.

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.
