dolly52 said… I am so sorry for late reply,haven't been online that much this month.The answer to your question,I travelled five months after my husband died with 9 year old twins,we went on holiday to Croatia.I felt so lonely and sad,it was the worse mistake ever! But you mention you would be visiting friends,I had no adult company at all and I missed my husband like crazy.

Arnie (New Normal) said… So sorry we have to meet this way, I am Arnie from NJ and offer friendship and a ear when needed. I do not write much but love the chat feature so I hope to see you there. My losses are many in short times, a 19 yr old son, a wife of 21-1/2 yrs, a Dad and BF wife all in span of less than 7 months, new and very deep but I have found an amazing place of comfort and healing, this place has been a big part of it. The rest of my "healing" is for private conversations. Just wanted to say Hi and welcome to the club no one wanted to belong to.
Love and hugs for my new friend
