Hey,
Im sorry I havn't been on here for a while. But I feel so broken right now. I keep thinking that I will be ok and then I just brake down and cry my eyes out. I hate the fact that he's not here for Christmas that he will miss our 2nd year anniversary next month. How do people that have been widowed for longer handle the first year after losing there loved one?
I want to just let go and forget cause I feel if I keep going like this ill suffocate. But the minute I tell myself to do that I hold to his memory and everything so tight I cant let go. I am sorry if this doesn't make sense but I am sitting here crying my eyes out and I don't know what to do and I know that you all have gone threw this too and understand.
People keep asking me if cause I'm still in my twenties will I remarry? how am i suppose to do that if i keep carrying him around with me. And i feel like if i don't find someone new im doing something wrong but if i do im doing something wrong. My mum died of cancer 3 years ago and i had to watch her suffer and die and now i had to do the same with my husband i just wonder if it gets any better. I hate this all of it. Please if you have some advise or even if you just want a place to vent out your feeling please comment below just so i know im not the only one that feels like this.

It is indeed a very challenging experience for you and all of us here in DS. No matter how long one is married, it is just as difficult. Nothing anyone say at time helps. You have to draw your own meaning from what you are experiencing. I pray that you find God in this experience. We all cry and wish and pray it is just a dream, but it is not. We just have reality to deal with.
May the peace of God be with you. I feel it for you. A big hug from me to you.
Love and lots of hug,
Christine
