I know how you feel up until one week ago all I had was pictures I keep saying if we only had the voice well we do my daughter found a voice message on an old phone it brought tears to my eyes and it really didn't make me happy because the only thing that would make me happy I can never have back I hope in time we all find peace hugs to you

Dear Stephanie and Karen I totally feel the same. Seeing a picture, place, handwriting, just about anything, and actually video, would probably be worse. Makes me more sad and sets me way back. Just like you, I'm hoping to figure out why and when it will stop. I need to be strong and happy for my kids. They don't like seeing me sad. May you all find strength to keep going.

I do the same thing. I look back trying to make myself feel better but it does the opposite.  No matter what it is, pictures, article of clothing, videos, it just is not as good of my husband actually being here with me......Don't feel like it's  a pitty party. it's not that. you are normal and grieving. that's something we will always do. we will always love them and miss them. Unfortunatly, we just have to figure out how to live differently. that hurts a lot to say it. and I am personally trying to figure that out too.
