It's been 14 mo. since my Jim passed away the hardest is living alone no one to talk to. I developed diabetes now and have to take insulin I was so sick and was in the hospital for a week. Maybe I will see him soon I just try to keep my little place tidy and stay sane. God Bless everyone
i do have family close by and they have helped me so much my daughter and granddaughter come by every week and call often to see if i need anything and listen to me talk about Jim. He wasn't related to them my second marriage but they are very understanding about my feelings of loss and grief. i do not work because i am disabled so i have a lot of time on my hands. i tr to keep busy but i have my moments i cry when i see a show we liked to watch together on tv or a song he liked i can't believe hes gone but God is my strength i will see him again someday i know in heaven if we can talk i would love to thanks so much
So how are you managing? Do you have other family with you or closeby? With me the thing that keeps me going is my children who still need me. But it is tough.
Heather I am so sorry for your loss, you just have to stay connected with all of us and whenever you are ready to share your emotions we are here for you. Take your time. I lost my husband 18 weeks ago and I know that every Wednesday I go in panic mode so I don't even talk with others. We are all here for you.
My goodness, that's recent. You must be about numb. I hope I'm through with the numbness. Getting in touch with the feelings, as horrible as they are, I think, is the only way through the unthinkable. Confronting the awful reality comes, like it or not, and the presence of friends or family makes a good deal of difference. Even if they just hold you or just be with you, the support is there and you'll feel it and feel things that can help to give you some hope for your recovery (even though we'll never be quite the same again). Listen to me! I really have no idea what I'm talking about. I only think I do. The love and support given to me by friends and family since my wife's passing on 1/1/2010 has meant the world to me. It's very scary to face the future, but what choice is there? We'll make it, honest. Marc
I'm sorry if my message was blunt and disturbed you. I needed to get something done quickly. In a few minutes, I've received two replies showing that the message was sent to many people.
I put a message up on Concilla's wall and sent an Email to Legacy. I don't know how long it might take for them to respond.
This appears to be a variation on the a classic e-mail scams, "you have money" or " I need help.." but targeted to a very venerable group. I has the tell tails of internet scams, comes from a foreign country from a non native english speaker. Being in a foreign country makes prosecution or recovery of assets impassable.
The original message looks to have been written in Spanish then translated by a translation computer program and not edited by someone who speaks any english at all.
I'll admit that I could be wrong. But If I'm correct, someone could be badly taken.
Heather, how long has it been since your loss, if I may ask? And the reason I ask is because my own loss has been relatively recent (three months) and I still feel like I'm falling apart at times and just hopeful that as the days pass and small new things begin to come into my life, that I can begin to string together some days that are not so difficult.
Respectfully, Marc

Heather, Concilia looks to be on a fishing expedition, the exact message you received was sent to me and at least one other person. I contains nothing specific to any of the recipient's profile and has nothing appropriate to the Grief support group. Do-not send emails to her, your email address or any other information that could be used for fraud. I'm looking into how to report this person
I'm sorry if this is disturbing to you, but I cannot sit by and do nothing..
