This poem has helped me daily to place one foot in front of the other, to breathe when I would much rather die. It was written by Gloria Landers and given to me when Tommy died: God hath not promised skies always blue, Flower strewn pathways all our life through; God hath not promised sun without rain' joy without sorrow, peace without pain. But God hath promised strenght for the day, rest for the labor, light for the way. Grace for the trials, help from above, unfailing sympathy, undying love.

Hi Solstice, I am so sorry for your loss.  You and I have a lot in common.  My husband was complaining about indigestion and the next thing I know he was gone.  He died April 8. Easter Sunday.  People on this site understand what you are going through.  Please read or write a blog or join in chat when you are ready.  If you have any questions send me a message and I will answer it if I can.  I will send you a friend request you can accept if you wish

Welcome to our community.... I hope we can keep you company on your journey ahead. Please look around a bit and read this basic introduction to the site. You can find more information about how the community works under "Help!" in the navigation bar, and we'll send you a few newsletters with tips and ideas in the coming weeks. If you need a little more help, go to the Home page and look in the right hand column to see the link to a "Help Desk" form.
We all use the site differently, but we hope you feel comfortable sharing among us in the coming days, weeks, and months.
Big hug!

Welcome Solstice: I'm sorry for your loss but I'm glad you found your way to this site. I know 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".
