God bless!

I think there are several of us who read the grieving section because we are in that situation. Your post was encouraging to me who has been a surviving spouse for 9 months now. Thank you for posting under the grieving section.

Same thing happened to me Jane. We're in the same boat.

Today I light a candle for my Tim who left me 9 months ago in December. I still visit him most every day at the cemetery and it still feels so right. To celebrate his birthday our four little grandaughters and their Mom and I went over and sang "Happy Birthday to Grampa" to him. I think it's our way of helping them to remember him. A new tradition for our family.

I too add my condolences to Gay. Dean was an inspiration to us all. So sorry.

Being a pianist, I had to read this.
Good one, Charlie!

Hi Ginny. I absolutely identify with your whole message. It will be 8 months for me tomorrow and the last week has been especially hard for me for some reason I haven't figured out yet. Thank God for family and close friends and the fact that I have a job to go to this fall. I feel like I am close behind in your footsteps. Thanks for reporting in.

The folks who have answered you so far are so smart! They say all the words I want to say to you. Just having my house back to myself was another type of grieving for me - I love my family, but I found out I also needed time alone for a bit. It's been 7 months for me now and I get a little stronger each day. But I still have days when I can not believe he has passed on and the tears flow.
My best to you and your hubbie and your little one.

Hi Ginny. I too find the need to check in here and I'm always glad to see a post by you. Seeing good news is so great. I feel like we have a lot in common.
Have a great week!

It's one day at a time for all of us who are going through this. So sorry to hear this. It's important to "keep the faith" and enjoy all the good times that occur; and I'm sure there will be many.
My best to you and your family!

I'm sorry you have lost your pops. It's really hard… my daughters have been through it too, six months ago. Am so glad you could be with him.

My Loss Isn't Big Enough to Count?

That's exactly why I haven't gone to any groups - scared of what may happen.
But I recently joined a support group over the internet similar to this one where everyone is in the same predicament. They even have a section for over 50 and moving on - which is where I belong. They have trained moderators in the chat forum who have made me feel so good!
I learned of it from this forum actually and I'll share it for those who are interested:

I am the type who wants to talk to people, but have found that over the internet is easier for me.
