Chocolate
I used to keep a sign over my desk that read: "When in doubt, administer chocolate." Sometimes that's all I can muster. Sending you some Ghirardelli Dark - the world's best - you deserve at least that much. Much Love and Hugs, Martha

Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Partner/SpouseMy husband died on January 4, 2008 very suddenly and unexpectedly.
Treatments
- Crying Not Working
- Helped some in the beginning but not so much now.
- Getting Angry Not Working
- I'm past the anger. It didn't really help and now it's just a constant sadness.
- Grief Counseling Not Working
- Since I no longer have medical insurance this is not an option for me. And as far as a grief support group, the only one I know of is at the hospital where my husband died and I don't want to go there.
- Keeping Busy Not Working
- Just a temporary distraction.
- Poetry Not Working
- Not bringing my husband back so no, it's not working.
- Prayer Not Working
- I don' know why I'm still here, I don't feel there's any purpose for me to be here, so I just pray that God would show me some reason why I am.
- Reading Not Working
- Sometimes I read but it's not taking away the pain.
- Remembering Not Working
- Sure, I remember the good times and then remember there will be no more of them.
- Support from Friends & Family Not Working
- My family was great in the beginning but now I'm on my own and no, it's not working.
- Talking Not Working
- There's no one to talk to who really understands.
- Time Too Soon to Tell
- Helping very little.
Close Widows & Widowers
I lost my husband of almost 34 years very suddenly and unexpectedly on January 4, 2008. He had not been sick at all on Sunday and came home from work not feeling well on New Year's Eve complaining of chills and a fever (100.2). He died of cardio pulmonary arrest and sepsis after being sick with what we thought was the flu after a few days. I brought him to the ER on Thursday afternoon and he passed away on Friday just before noon. I had no idea he was so seriously ill. We have 6 sons.
Open Diabetes Type 1
I have a 17 year old son with Type 1 diabetes. He was diagnosed when he was 8 yrs old. Not knowing much about the disease and having had 5 sons before him without this it took us completely by surprise. We almost lost him because his blood sugar had soared to over 1200 before we realized what was going on. They had to air lift him to a hospital 50 miles away where he spent the night in ICU. Now that he's a teenager it's gotten much more difficult to get him to care for himself properly.

Open Parenting Teenagers (12-18)
I'm on my last of 6 boys going through the teen years. He's 17 and we're both dealing with losing his Dad and my husband in January 2008. He also has Type 1 Diabetes. So I'm having my hands full at this point. Just trying to do my best to finish raising him and keep the lines of communication open.
