    • About Me

      I lost my David, my fiancee and my soulmate, on April 14, 2008. I struggle everyday to go on without him. He was my best friend, my teacher, my counselor, my preacher, my rock, my every breath and my every heartbeat. We had only 2 years, but in that short time, "we loved a lifetime's worth" as Sarah Connor said. I just wanted more. David ended most of his songs with "Take me home" to wrap things up. His headstone bears that message. God took him home to be forever in glory, to live with no pain and no tears. He has his prize. I celebrate that, but miss him to help me through the lonely days on this earth, until we can share eternity together. I am here at DS, asking for prayer, asking for compassion, asking for advice, asking for friendship and to give the same to anyone who needs that from me. Only with love can we endure our losses. Love and faith abide. God bless.

    • I’m With You

      From Shrn November 11

      Just wanted to say the waves of grief often return and not because we did or do something wrong. They come because they are feelings we have brought on by life and it's unfairness. You have a right to be sad even after months, you miss him, you love him still, and your life is not as you wanted. It's perfectly fine to feel that sadness, we all do and we all handle it the right way for us. Sharon

      I was never married to David by the state, but we were married in God's eyes and fully committed to each other. I need to grieve as a widow but society says I am not. I join this group to be around those who might accept me and understand my pain.
