Lost and Hurting

B-Texas

Just lost my wife of 19 yrs to a brain anuerism, on Sept. 2, 2019. I had no chance to say good-bye to best person that I was truly blessed to have in my life. She was totally healthy with no signs this was going to occur. I have a teen-age daughter to raise by myself and struggle daily to keep a smile on my face for her so she feels secure. My heart is ripped into pieces, but know that my wife was strong indepenent women and wants to finish the job of raising our little angel that she did such a great job of. Hoping the pain subsides soon....

Breathe take deep breaths it helps when the pain get real hard..and love yourself and your daughter.What a gift you have had and still have with your daughter.Everyone grieves differently but on here we can attest to the fact of losing ourselves is somewhat normal.Not that you ever get over the fact you have lost your wife but you learn how to cope. Some never do and for me i am seeing a sliver of light some days get brighter each and every day. Ebbs now and then....been almost 4 years now.There probably isn't much i haven't over thought and the same for everyone on this site. We also understand .(((Hugs)))

    Just thought I would join this group now that I am a widower.  My wife passed away May 28th. She was "The Wind Beneath My Wings".  When I met her, I was a drunken, dope smoking, fighting, hell raising biker.  She told me if I could get rid of the inner storm within me, that I could be a blessing to people. God placed her in my path to stop me.  I have been drug and alcohol free now for 53...
