Hi Life3407,
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you!
My sweetie passed on October 16, 2012 after battling ovarian cancer for 8 yrs. It almost seems surreal that she is gone. We were high school sweethearts so I am trying to deal with this emptiness that I couldn't even imagine. I'm even tearing up while typing this but it needs to come out.
I find this site comforting and helpful overall. We all have common thoughts and feelings that we experience on our journey. I find that essentially, what I'm going through, is normal.
Please feel free to message me if you would like. I'm a good listener.
I wish you the best!
Bruce
Welcome Life3407: I'm sorry for your loss but I'm glad you found your way to this site. I hope you will find the same comfort and understanding here at Widowed Village that I have. In the beginning I just read the blogs and posts and lurked in chat. Post and join us in chat when you feel comfortable. It is nice to be among people who "Get It".
Join the Groups that fit you to connect to others with similar experiences. Take a look at our Forum discussions where you'll find meaningful conversations taking place. Those 'chirps' you hear when you're in Widowed Village mean people are talking in the Chat Room; stop in some time and join the conversations. I look forward to getting to know you here.
