Know Brendan, that you are not alone on this site. We are all going through the same thing, and we understand each other like no one else can that hasn't lost a spouse. I have never physically met anyone from here, but it is my honor to call them my friends. We are free to tell our thoughts here, we do not have that freedom with friends and family, because the don't understand or want to hear it. So post away. May God give us the peace and comfort we are all looking for. Hugs to you.

brendan, we are all here for you and for each other. As you have heard, we all have the same situations going and our lives will never be the same. Thats why be can share and care and understand. Through all of this we can somehow manage. We truly understand. Just being able to "let it out" helps us a great deal. This site is for us to help grieve the loss of our spouse with the people who have been there and are there.

Brendan you came to the right place. Ever since I've been here and met so many new friends who truly understand, I feel I can open up more and express my feelings of loss. We are all together in this new life we are forced to live and everyone is here for each other. The feelings won't go away, but I'm told it will get easier to deal with the day to day roller coaster rides. Please stick with us and together we will all survive.
Hugs to you, and we all understand so don't be afraid to let your feelings out.
Barb
