After sharing my story with Wildgreens I realized there may be others on the site who would like to chat about losing their spouse. Sometimes families and friends aren't very supportive after a time as they decide it is time to move on. There is no ...

My wife died in early October 2015 after a long fight with her brain tumour. The end came fairly quickly and unexpectedly. Given her recovery and improving health and abilities, I thought she'd be around for at least another decade. When that sort of...

When I still had Bear, he was my safety net and security. He was my best friend and strength. I never knew what burdens were, I never knew what baggage was. I never knew what worries were. He kept me safe in every way. I miss that.

My husband died in November after a long struggle with addiction. It started with doctors too generous for many years with opiods and Xanax. The end was sad and ugly. I’m left with so many conflicting emotions. Most people seem to think I’m okay ...

From the day we were married until the day she died, we were together for 42 years, 2 months and 13 days. I remember the day we got married. All the TV weathermen said that the temperatures would be in the very low 30's with drizzle and snow showers ...

As you are aware, this is somewhat difficult. On April 15, 2018 it will be two years since my wife of 54 years has died. Time has helped but not that much. Life with her, as I knew it no longer exists. I still have a problem "fitting in" and I ...

Mike died in '01. Although it will be 17 years this coming June, I often think of him. He was sick for about 5 years before he died and was in much pain. I learned very quickly to hate the sight and smells of hospitals. The week before he died he ...

I knew this group was here, but I have been avoiding it, my wife died only 5 months ago 12-14-17, and I have been trying to move on, and sometimes I feel like I have succeeded, and then there are times that I feel like I am failing and still hurt ...

Does anyone ever feel like their spouse is watching over them? I get the feeling my wife is still there. We had a thing about finding pennies while doing laundry at the laundromat. After she died I was finding pennies everywhere. I asked her to stop ...

I see comments/posts where people knew the day was coming. THE last day. And they act like they didn't prepare for it. Days, weeks, months, even years to prepare for THE final day of their spouse or loved one. There are actually 2 I suppose. One ...

How does one move on? How does one not dishonor a life of love and caring? I wish I had answers, where all I have are questions and self doubt. Thanks for all the posts here, some are very enlightening.

Today I was watching TV and the character was grieving her daughter's death. She found a garment that she had previously missed in her daughters things, and just the way she smelled it took me all the way back. I was completely blindsided by the ...

Today is the first anniversary of Lisa's passing. I had planned to write some great thing about her last few months on the planet. Now that the time is here, my mind draws a blank. I can't write something great because there's nothing great about her...

Here is something I can say a little bit about. Having had both a spouse that I adored who died and a spouse who performed the ultimate betrayal as he strayed by looking up an old acquaintance to cheat within our marriage ( he was feeling "old and ...

Sorry to be joining late. My settings let very few alerts through, so I missed this group's launch. I've been widowed twelve years, by cancer of unknown type and origin. We had 89 days from "something's wrong" to gone. It spread like fire, ...
