Wishing you strength today. Try to remember all those good years, and maybe get out a little bit to distract yourself. That's what helped me make it through my anniversary. Oh and by the way, happy anniversary!! Remember the love is still there

I saw your post that today is your wedding anniversary ... and so soon following your loss. May precious memories wrap you in love today, Carolann.

 

Hugs, Dianne.

Hi Carolann. I saw your post in the Widowed in 2011 group, but since I'm not a member I couldn't respond there (I'm in the 2010 group). Just wanted to tell you that I also found it very helpful to carry my husband's wallet with me during my first months. At about the 3 month mark, I put his wallet away in a special place but placed his drivers' license in my wallet. It's the first thing I see when I open it and still brings me peace at 10 months. Blessings to you.
