Joel and I
This is a picture of the two of us shortly after we met. Such a long time ago. We were so happy getting to know each other and growing together as a couple. What a wonderful time.

Sandralee commented on Steve Cain's group Bereaved Spouses"It's been just another day. Nothing special. I went nowhere, saw no one and did very little as usual. I am so lost without my husband. I miss him more than words can ever say. I am barely getting through the days. When…"

Much has happened since my husband passed away. I moved away trying to start a new life for myself. Since moving things have been very hard and difficult. I am barely making it financially, my health has gotten worse, nothing is ever easy. I've changed. I am no longer that happy person who looked forward to life with my husband. I have become sinicle and bitter. I have lost my ambition and no longer care if I do anything. One day is just like the other. These are my changes. Do I like them…See More

This will be my first Thanksgiving without Joel and I am feeling depressed and close to tears as I sit here thinking about all the other Thanksgivings that we had together. I see him in my minds eye sitting across the table from me and he is saying a prayer thanking god for giving us the day together and for all the food sitting there before us. He looks up with a smile and begins to carve the turkey. I like white meat he likes dark . I make sweet potatoes every year but he won't eat them. He…See More

Tomorrow, November 6, 2010, Joel will be gone six months and I am feeling depressed again. It has been awhile since I have been on here. I have been trying my best to get on with my life. I plan on signing up for a course in creative writing at the local college. I painted all the way through the apartment with the help of my son. I have also full filled all of my husbands requests before he passed away. His clothes have all gone to the local Good Will, all the files in the filing cabinet have…See More

- Kathy, Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. It will be four months since Joel passed away. I'd like to say it gets easier but so far it hasn't. I have been through intence pshycotherapy thinking it would help but so far it has not. I met other people while i was there but but they were there for totally different reasons---drugs, ect. so I could not connect. I find myself wondering around the house talking to him. I have become isolated and don't go out much. I packed up all his things and put them away but he is still here. I cannot except his death. I am lost to everyone and everything including myself.

- This picture was taken of my husband, Joel, shortly before he passed way. He was a very strong willed man. He did not want his friends or relatives to know just how sick he really was. He kept telling everyone that he was doing well. He remained active right to the end. When he passed it was a shock to everybody who knew him.
