I am sorry for your loss. You have found the right place to either let your feelings out or just read what others are going through and to know you are not alone. I am 3 months into this journey and the first month is kind of a blur. I went back to work after a week not that I really got a lot done because my brain was mush but it at least gave me a little escape from my nightmare. I know it is hard to hear people tell you it will get better. What the heck is better really? Please take care of yourself keep hydrated and eat what you can and get some rest. I pray God's love will comfort for you and your family.

Wow. You were hit with both barrels. So close together. So sorry for you. It will get better in time. That's how we measure these moments. ...one at a time. So sorry you find yourself in this group.

Thank you, both of you. Today has been a really tough one. It was nice to come home and find your kind words of support and comfort.

I am so sorry. I know it's hard. I know you don't want to be at work because your mind is somewhere else and it's hard to work when your heart is breaking. My husband passed 15 months ago and I went back to work a week after his death everybody said it would be good for me I'm not sure about that I was in a blurr for about two months.Time does help. I am still trying to get to know who I am without my husband. My life has changed alot. I miss him everyday.

Im so sorry. This really got to me. I met my husband at 17, married him at 20 and we remained together until he passed 5 months ago. He died of a heart attack right in front of me. He was 45 and im 42. He was the world to me and our four children. Its so hard to be without him and I hate that my children have to watch me like this. I will say a prayer for you, Lord knows we all need it.

ladybjt,

I am so sorry for your loss. I hate that this happen two times in a row to you, you didn't even have a chance grieve for one before getting hit again. All you can do is stay strong and keep yourself going each day. You can do it. It's so very hard right now and only the members here know what you are going through. The other People who tell you it will get better have no clue, but we do. Try not to let others get you down and remember the good times you all shared.

Thank you Lost Without Carol and everyone who has been so kind.. I am finding being here seems to help. Do I still feel extremely sad and lost? Yes, but not alone...not without hope. If God leads you to it, he will see you through it.

I also shared a 40th wedding anniversary when I lost my husband. The loss is unimaginable. I want to welcome you here. It has been such a support for me as I struggled through the days without him. I hope you find comfort with us. Sharon

I am so sorry..my husband died April 13, 2017....I am completely lost. I feel your pain.

Cattyann: I am so sorry for your loss, too. I had supper with a couple of good friends this evening. One I work with on a daily basis the other is a former coworker. It seems like I break down everyday in my friend's office...unexpected just the tears well up. She just sits calmly an d holds my hand and gives me a hug. The other kept saying this evening "I glad you're ok." I love her dearly but I wanted to scream "OK? What do mean OK." I know she meant well, but I am not OK. Functioning yes, but still very much hurting for husband. Three weeks and it hurts more than it did when it happened...the numbness is wearing off. Thank goodness for this place where I feel safe to express all these emotions.

I'm truly sorry for your loss. Your world is shattered into pieces; that's how I literally felt, even 21 months after. It takes many days, many tears and many reflections to gain a new perspective and outlook to think of where to go from here. Give yourself time to grief for each significant loss. Take care of your body and be gentle to yourself.
