- November 11, 2014.. The day i came home from work and discovered what had happened to my wife..2 days after her. 52nd birthday...The day my life changed forever. I'm sitting here at work, thankful that I'm behind cubicle walls and that no-one can...
- well..not a "I started this" kind of post...have not commented a lot lately either... Still kindof browse the site, but i've been so busy prepping for my move, i've just had no energy for it..I guess this is an "update" for anyone that wanted me to...
- As in, to a new house/apartment/whatever... Did it help deal with some of the stress and grief? As I am nearing the proverbial "finish line" of selling my house/trying to buy a new place in a new state/line up a job, I am finding myself 3 seconds...
- Hello to you all..I know its been emotional today (and plenty of other days) for all of us..and those of us up late are really having a struggle lately with emotions getting too us..I'm not normally "mr. Positive", i've never been an optimist... But...
- I haven't had much of my wife's clothing around me for a while..for some reason, much of her perfume or just her "scent" faded quickly.. I the past 2 days of cleaning my house, getting it ready too sell, I've come across a couple of outfits (a...
- It's been a very long week. The co-worker on my team that usually handles releasing our software is on vacation for a month..so I get my job + his. Not something i can't do, but that means after working all day, wednesday night's at 9pm pst, i get...
- And I don't mean about "being hopeful" although there is some of that in there too... I mean just in general, as loud as you can, at the world and how its treated us to get us all in this situation?I know I've actually screamed a few times like that...
- As I have been cleaning up / cleaning out my house, i have come across things that i do not know what to do with..Usually i can set them aside to "deal with later" ; I just came across the boxed/bagged up wedding dress my wife wore when we were...
- In these overwhelming times and circumstances that we are all experiencing here, sometimes its hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel, any joy in our futures, or to remember, our loved ones would not want us defined by grief. I think...
- Hello all,I've not started a topic in a few weeks. i thought i'd give an 'update' on how i'm doing, since lately, im doing pretty good ; Its been a busy, "freeing", interesting month+ for me since i got back from visiting my parents over the xmas...
- Or does this special hell we find ourselves in, seem to make old hobbies/likes just fade away for anyone else? I used to love shopping for DVDs for my wife and i to watch..I'd take her to her dialysis on Saturdays and then head to Walmart and dig...
- Next week I will be at the 2 month mark since the loss of my wife Melodie.I spent the last 2 weeks visiting my parents out of state, and i think that truly helped me maintain sanity through the holiday..Most days, I was "strong" during the day, and...
- I've had a couple of crummy weeks in a row..I've been pretty teary eyed lately and very much depressed / missing my wife intensely. I've had good support for all of you here & from my friends and work, but as you all know, it is an understatement...
- the things that i find lately that get me teary eyed... I'm trying to find an old order i placed on amazon, and see a few orders from 2 months ago for some items i had bought my wife..she barely got to use them...sigh...now im sitting here teary...
- It will be one month since i lost my wife on 12/9 ; I've been thinking i should try to see a grief counselor..I'm having a very hard time finding any in my area that are not religiously affiliated (no offense meant, i am just not a religious person)...
