Hello my name is Jonathan. This is my first time reaching out to others that have been widowed and I find myself unsure and uncertain in this whole process. My wife Devany passed away on Christmas Eve in 2020 due to a car accident. I have felt pretty lost in the two years or so that have followed and I am just trying to reach out to those who have been through something like this, so hello to everyone.

Hi Jonathan, I lost my husband in May 2020. He was ill, and I cared for him for about a year until he passed at home. It’s been a lil over 2 years and there are good days and bad days. I also feel lost and just stuck. It’s hard to be without that soul mate you’ve shared everything with. Didn’t expect to find myself alone, to be without him and a future together at this age. But those memories of him and 44 years of marriage, 46 now, are what keep me going everyday. I can almost hear him telling me to move forward. But I just can’t seem to see daylight some days. I feel like the luckiest soul to have had him for the time I did, I just want more. I’m sorry, you are also feeling lost. I’ve only reached out here a few times, but it does help to share. It’s sometimes hard to share with family, feeling like its making their grief harder. I don’t really have words to help ease your pain, but would be happy to be a shoulder.

Hi Jonathan! This journey can be a tough one – I hope you hold tight the good memories that you both shared. I’ve been a widow since March 2021, and that’s the only thing that helps me to get through. Take Care!

Thank for the encouragement Michelle I appreciate your words very much. I do think about the good moments and that laughs that I shared with my Devany a lot. We had some really good times.
