Hello everyone. I've been away for a while, but I needed to drop by. Just a really rough day. Almost at 6 months and it's not getting any easier. May be getting a little tougher. I guess when I have bad days, they are just badd days, like today. I've just been facing a lot of "firsts" without him and it's really hard, as all of you know. Just looking for a little boost up today. Feeling kinda down. Hope you all are well and hanging in there. ~Steph

Sorry. I was feeling that way all week. Doing better now. Hope you too start to feel a little better. In my thoughts and prayers. Marilyn

Nice to see you again. We are here for the bad days and we all have them. There isn't much to take them away, especially the first year. Guess you already know that. So catch us up on what you're doing these days.
For me, it will be seven years this month. I pretty much get through the waves, as I call it, by learning to swim or at least float. Hoping you have a better tomorrow. Sharon

I'm at 7 months and I understand all too well. This journey we are on is not an easy one and dealing with that monster grief is exhausting.

Sending you gentle hugs and prayers that you find some peaceful moments every day.
Blessings,
Sharon

I'm at 7 months too and it is getting very difficult again, it was better; hope you'll feel better soon....
Yes, when that wave comes, it is painful, exhausting, unstoppable and for some of us it lasts much too long, bringing in the dark thoughts again...... as it is occuring for me for the past 3 days; we have to hang in there and hope for better days.
Hugs and prayers go your way. Jeanne

Saturday was my wedding anniversary. It was the first without him. Very sad, lots of tears. But, now, I never have to do that first again. Whew. I'm sure there will be others. Fathers Day. His birthday. Thanksgiving. Xmas. But I don't think those will be as difficult as the wedding anniversary I just went through. I hope you can see that light too.
