jmc23 replied to Supa Dupa Fresh's discussion What is the most insensitive thing someone has said to you about your loss?
"I have heard it all but the worst was when my wife was still with us...after her last round of chemo and few months before she passed, one of her "friends" commented how jealous she was on her being so skinny and that she was lucky.…"

Profile Information
- Do you feel you could use a "buddy" to help you get around the site at first?
- No thanks
- Would you like to add a statement about you to your profile page? For example, the URL of a blog? This answer will be VISIBLE on your profile page.
- I fing it very difficult even 2 years later to have the drive and desire to move on in life. I struggle on a daily basis to keep my head above water. My beautiful wife was taken away way too early and I feel that not only do a mourn our wonderful, shortened past but I too mourn the future we had planned. It's easier to push away the people and things I once enjoyed instead of embracing them without her. I am looking to connect and communicatewith people with similar feelings and situations. Bless all of you out there and hope we together can find some sort of peace.

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 John, I'm so sorry for your loss, but glad you found us. Our road to recovery can be a long and winding one, but none of us need travel it alone. I hope you will find comfort and peace on this journey, and maybe some new friends along the way. We are here if you need us.

I'm so very sorry for your loss, Jon, but glad you found us. There is caring support and friendship here. 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.
