"Hello Jocelyn
Had to respond when I read the part of acknowledging signs or what I call nuggets from heaven. My husband use to bring me flowers all the time....at work and home, it did not have to be a special occasion.
He had requested many years…"

"Puddy,
Pray you find your peace and joy again. It is so hard. I too left the home I had with my husband, (36 years there) and felt exactly what you are feeling now....wanting to stay yet wanting to run. I moved also into a maintenance free place as…"

"Juls
So sorry for what you are feeling, wishing you strength each day. Seems there is so much conflicted emotions in this journey. Wanting to run, wanting to stay, most of all wanting to be what it use to be.
God Bless

"Gordy....sending prayer and healing to you. I sure hope you start feeling better.
Mahagen, you just said what many of us think. So much is unknown and that is the hard part. I use to make plans, since Chuck died I can't.
Hopefully…"

"Yeah, dealing with a disability that you can not see is the pits. I began to think I was crazy, looking at myself in the mirror thinking maybe it really was in my mind. My rheumatologist taught me a lot, thankful for him. Maybe I will try the…"

"I hear you all.....chronic health issues also. I am on social security disability, will soon be 58 and hate that I am alone. I try to walk to keep limbs & joints moving when I can. Just scary thinking of the future. Yikes! :(

Missing you Still
Posted on July 1, 2012 at 12:31am 5 Comments 0 Likes
My heart died the day yours stopped beating.
Sitting here alone trying to figure out my life
They call me widow, I call me your wife.
I will never understand why
I am still living and you had to die.
I put on a face for everyone to see
they think I'm okay, only I know that could never be
me here without you...you there without me.
I promise to try, give it all I got
Life is lonely, don't know if people can see
I'm broken…
AGONY OF GRIEF

Grief
Picks you up and slams you down, knocking everything loose.
Shattering everything that was sold, secure and good
Never to be the same again.…

I am better now then my previous post. My family chased away my blues.
My daughter came and cooked for us. I walked with my grandchildren from house to house trick or treating. The night was clear and beautiful I could hear laughter and felt God's peace touch me.
I am a widow.
I am grieving.
I am going to get through this.
I know this is the hardest thing I have ever gone through
I know God's with me.
I know one day we will be united in…
Continue Here I go again

Tears on my face but I cannot, will not try to stop them. Knowing I will never hold you again or feel your breath close to me just hurts so bad. Like a silent movie, memories run through my mind. I can't find the off button.
I try to stop wondering why I am still here and you had to die.
Just missing you.

Poppys Girl thank you so much for the kind words. This is so hard and a day to day struggle. I'm so glad you have your boys to lean on when you need or to just be with. Both my boys are so far away and the phone just isn't the same. My world is very lonely also with just me and the dogs alot of tears fall when I'm at home now. I still would rather be here then out in the world that seems to have already forgotten him. I know life has to go on...I just don't like being apart of it.
