Hello everyone. This is my first post ever on anything. How do I add an icon to my user name? My husband of 41 years died on 9/15/11. I have read almost every post on this site and everyone's comments have been so helpful. I can relate to so much of what many have been through. Overall I have done fairly well for myself despite having no supports, no children. one sister out of state. I will be adding comments to some of the posts that have really gotten to me - Black Widow and Vultures are a couple that comes to mind. I hope I can be helpful to others here.
Glad you decided to join in. Just reading isn't much fun. I lost my husband just a few days before you lost yours. It's so very hard, never being alone before. I am still trying to learn to live with it.
Please share anything you have learned that helps.
