This is my first post...ever. I am not a facebook or chatroom user. But I've read many posted in this group and I feel comfortable enough to write now. It has been 2 years and 2 weeks since I lost the love of my live, Carolyn, to Colon Cancer. I never imagined it possible that I could feel so lonely and hurt so much! Here is my story:I have experienced the two worst nightmares one can live through, the loss of a child and the loss of a spouse. Not one day goes by that I don’t look at…See More

I don't think much differnt although he would get on his motorcycle and ride and cry. I sit home and cry. Still the same we had so much love for each other . I am 52 like u . People tell me I am too young to sit and not move on. But how many times in your life do u find the perfect person? I was lucky once. How are your kids? I have a 19 year old son who I think hides the grief which scares me. He loved his father but never shows the saddness. Take care . Crying or my real name lisa
