Hi Deb, Thank You for reading my comment. Do I have anyone to Live with? No I live alone and have a cat. I DO have a friend that lives about 5 miles from me and he has been there for me. We are Just FRIENDS. Paula

I always look forward to talking to you. You are such a wonderful friend.

Absolutely!!! Hi new friend :)

Deb,

Thank you for viewing my post.  Your positve comments and support mean so much.  It hasn't always been an easy road, yet I know, slowly but surely, I am moving forward. 

I am sorry you had to find this site.  It's not a place any of us really want to be, but it is a source of comfort knowing that here you are never alone.  I hope you are able to find peace and comfort as we go into the holiday season.  Always remember not only are you not alone here on this site, but you will always have your family close by nudging you along everyday.

Hugs and Blessings,

Marlena 

Deb,  I am so sorry you had to join this forum but you will find  support here from members who understand.  I was just in the chat room you were in and you seem to be a caring, compassionate person who gives good advice.  Losing a child is the only thing I can think of is worse than losing a spouse who was a long term "soul mate". My wife passed 3 months ago and I will never get over it. There is guilt involved because I made some wrong decisions in her medical care and did not step in sooner when things were being overlooked. I also lost both parents but I got through the grief after several years. Losing a spouse, however, is like losing half of your being and your remaining life is just pointless.  Welcome to a place where grief never ends and where we try to give each other hope of better days ahead.
