I lost my wife of 23 years to pancreatic cancer on Nov 1st 2018. The grieving process has been 'interesting'. I have realised that I started to grieve shortly after her diagnosis 2 years ago. Being knowledgeable about cancer, it's treatment and ...

I really hate being a member of this group. My wife, Kathy, died July 1, 2017. We'd been together for 36 years and I wanted nothing more than to get old together. That can never happen and it just makes me so angry. Ironically I joined this site to ...

It's WAY early in the morning and meandering about I found this group. I thought it was serendipitous because I am having a dilemma. I was a young widow in 2007. It was sudden, and he was relatively a young man (he was 47, I was 38 ). Subsequently,...

Does the weather affect your grief? Now that the weather's turned cold, and especially today while we're having an ice storm, I just absolutely ache for his presence. I keep looking at his chair, hoping he'll materialize. This sucks.

If you guys are cool with it - I'm going to join just to keep an eye out for scammers. This seems to be one of the groups they target when they get smarter (ie when they get booted a time or two from the site and learn how to navigate around a bit ...

Why do I still do this to myself? I periodically feel the need to either open up the box of sympathy cards and funeral home register or go back to my FB timeline and review all the posts from the time he was diagnosed until the time he died. It’s...

Did any of you find yourself becoming more self-centered after you lost your partner/spouse? I struggle with this a lot. I’ve talked to friends about it and they all say it isn’t true, but I don’t believe them. I never realized how much my ...

It has been almost three since Lisa died of a heart attack. I can never replace her and not trying to. I'm not looking for relationship but if the right one came along that would be just too good. Imagine that. She was a feminist and lead our ...

So...on Tuesday I'm heading out for a big solo vacation overseas! I'm meeting a lady in the UK I actually met on here. It feels weird and sometimes guilty. But I have a few more chapters left in this book of life, so hear goes nothin'!
