- I've never had so many in a row. I'd like at least one good day, or part of a good day, or even a neutral day where I feel nothing at all.
- I'm finding very hard to plan that far ahead, but trying to do so. As my wife and I camped/fished for at least 30 summers, I would like to honour that tradition. I'm thinking of finding a place to park our 5th Wheel by the beach on the west coast of...
- Is it just me?
- How does one experience anger, without expressing it? How many ways and venues are there to express anger? How many forms can it take, and how many of them are socially acceptable, and healthy? We can externalize it, or internalize it. Is verbal...

- I fear living the rest of my life without my wife.I fear living alone.I fear not being able to confide with my closest friend.I fear not hearing the breath of my loved one through-out the night.I fear losing memories of moments we shared.I fear...
- Another unexpected trigger. A very formal letter from Sherrif's department arrived calling Glenda in for Jury Duty.And the Court may impose a penalty for not appearing. Good Luck with that!
- ... has shown me a sad face since July 2016 when Glenda was first diagnosed with stage 4 Colorectal Cancer and given 6-9 months to live. The mirror never lies, and I can't even remember when it last showed me a smile or a happy face and regardless I...
- The intimate and physical moments that my wife and I shared together for many a night and many a year. The passion may have waned a little with time, but not the bond of love.

- I am new to this forum experience, but it seems to me we can all post fresh info in a new post whenever we want as an OP. So in that case, if a comment does not directly pertain to the original post subject matter, is this not considered hijacking,...
- We are groomed from a young age to plan/prepare for retirement and yet I have heard of so many people dying immediately pre/post retirement. I'm feeling angry about this as Glenda and I had so many plans for retirement together that now can never...
- At this point Grief Pain is all powerful. At some point in the future does the power of loneliness supplant Grief Pain? If so, does it only happen with some people? What variables might apply? Gender? Age? Longevity of the bond? Depth of the love...
- I have decided to attempt adding friends especially when I see they are new. I'm doing this because I believe someone that has lost a spouse regardless of age, religion or gender has far more in common with me than differences. I know it is only a...
- Notified by my oldest son last night that he and his fiance were involved in a six car accident on a local Vancouver bridge under repair and in the fog. Other than some whiplash and a sore back, they are okay. The timing was bad for me, and of...
