I told myself I would never share on this type of site but I am feeling very isolated lately and the grief can be overwhelming at times. I have been married and widowed twice. It seems like a nightmare that I just can't wake up from. On the outside you would think I have it all together but it has been two years since second husband's death and almost each day I feel the intense pain of both losses. This COVID pandemic is definitely not helping. How are others moving forward and staying positive.

This virus definitely makes it harder. I have adjusted somewhat and go for walks everyday, and go to the mall with mask on. Not looking forward to when the weather turns cold. That will be a game changer. Have to take things one day at a time. One day you will find that you are managing better though the loss will still be there. Hang in there. ((Gentle Hugs))

I am facing possible second widowhood and live in fear every day. I would like to know how you found the courage to go on living.
