Hello Susan. Welcome! My name is Mary Jane.  I. Sent you a long reply, but for some reason it wouldn,t go thru..so I am trying again.I am happy you have come home here. We are a wonderful group..this is short, to tell you I am not sure where you started this post..but go to the main page of Bereaved Spouses, and post there...so everyone can see it, and respond. This site is set up oddly, we all post “in a row” on the main page. It took me an entire day to figure it out. I hope you get this..don,t let any computer problems deter you...make sure you are on page one when u post, otherwise your post will just sit there.

I too,lost my husband to cancer after only 4 months being sick...but I found this place and it saved my life. Please don,t give up...there are so many wonderful, supportive  people here...and I am happy you found us.

Dear Susan ...  My condolences on the loss of your husband.  My husband passed April 27, 2011 of pancreatic cancer.  All of us here know exactly what you are going through and how tough grief can be.  Crying is good for you and please try to rest the best you can.  What you are feeling is very normal and we've all been there.  Legacy and the angels on it helped me through my grief and I am forever thankful.  I still come on here to encourage newcomers that there is hope, the pain is not as great at the beginning of grief and in your own time you will realize just how strong you are.  You can post anything you like and no one judges you.  We all surround each other when we are feeling at our lowest.  I sure hope you decide to join this group of wonderful members as I know it will help you as much as it did me.

Big hug (because you need it.)

Marsha

Thank you all for the kind welcome. I posted on the comment wall as well. Wasn't exactly sure how this site works but I am glad that I found it. I can already feel the warmth. Thank you.

Susan ...  You are very welcome.  I know you will feel so much better joining and realizing what you are going through is normal as you read other member's posts.

This is how you get on the main board for discussion with other members.  

Go to the top where it's gray and click on 'MAIN'

When you get there you will see pictures of people and on the very left it says 'BEREAVED SPOUSES' and click on that and you'll come right into the discussion board.

Hope this helps.

Marsha
