it so hard to have made a decision and have people question it do what you need to keep yourself sane or at least our version of it so maybe you need to keep a bit of distance from this friend to do that you will find you lose a few friends at this time but the ones you keep (even of its just one) are your true friends

I am so sorry to hear about your cat they are more then just our pets and the connection to your husband glad to hear your cat is eating and purring

I am so sorry your having such a rough day the reminders are so hard to take when all your trying to do is get through the day and I don't know how facebook does it but they pick the hardest pictures that hit us right in the gut take care

hugs to you

sometimes the best time to post is when you are in the darkest of days and thoughts we all know those times I am sorry for all that you are going through and I wanted you to know we are here for you take care

I am so sorry to hear about losing your Graham this is the place you can come to hear about others who have been through this awful Journey just remember to get through the day as hard as that seems take care

missingSquish- not a fail at all I am 14 months out and just hearing you and any wid's who have had the guts to get out there is inspiring I am still not close to that but even a glimmer of peeking around the corner and trying to date, helps I am also an introvert and need to recharge after social scenes and could easily become crazy dog lady take care

love the story !! Catnip - you made me laugh out loud , I can picture you just sitting at your desk staring at your dunkin cup

I am so sorry to hear about your FIL , this has to be so hard on all of you hugs to you and your daughter

Fuck that I took a much needed vacation and got my first real rest since Mydon died only to come home to a notice of cancelled health insurance , bill for broken furnace ,etc Just Fuck reality always kicking me in the gut Fuck that I opened the mail !

I am so sorry for your loss.I also lost my don suddenly It is so hard to grasp they were here one second and then gone Just take it minute by minute and when someone offers to help please accept it ,if you need it I am sure you don't know what you need right now , the minute I thought of something I might need help with I would write it down because I knew I would forget it try and take care of yourself

what a week , Hope even today gets a bit better sending hugs your way take care

I am so sorry you had to become someone in this group , but I am glad you reached out here Just try and get through every minute , ask people for anything you need know you probably won't know what that is right now please be kind to yourself take care

Great Picture Take care , not an easy day I am sure

Brenda: You made it through the first of "first" Never sure how to react to this but we are all still standing so that has to be good my year one was in October The only good part was I went to a bago dinner the night before so it gave me a bit of strength It surprised me, how the actual day ,I couldn't stop the raw tears from coming you know the ones that are non stoppable no matter where you are take care

I am so sorry for your loss The anniversaries are tough and the furthur out the dates get the less people seem to remember You do whatever feels right for you Just to get up and get through the days ahead is an accomplishment, so please know that much For me when these days would be tough I would take our dog for a long walk in the woods so I could take a deep breath and not have to deal Be gentle with yourself Take care

I will be thinking of you these next few days wish I had more to say to comfort you , Take care

So sorry your having a tough time with your daughter especially hard when the one person who you want/need isnt there wish I could make it easier like soverysad said we would love to hear about your Jim anytime

I do understand what your going through or at least my version of it I am glad you posted here I will look in the mirror and see the face that no longer smiles or how my eyes have become dull Then I try and remember the person he fell in love with and try to get that spark back It comes and goes but I do get it back in little bits I hope the same for you but even if it doesn't, know we do get it and we can be your support

I am so sorry this came back to you this way I wish I had more to say to comfort you when the worst of the images come back I am not sure what we can do to stop them just ride that awful wave I just wanted you to know I saw this post and my heart broke for you take care

thanks for sharing this so many true feelings expressed

Feb is pretty clear for me also

I am so sorry Mark I also lost my Don suddenly and the first few Months were a blur A way of self protection, I think, to keep us in motion I take a deep breath and feel the sadness whenever I see a new person who had to be here but use this forum whenever you need it , It helped me immensely to know this group was here and knew what I was going through take care

So sorry I missed this Bago I really wanted to meet you all and see some of the people I had meet before It is amazing how these meetings can send good energy to get through another few months Looking forward to the next one take care PS... Mark I couldn't reply to the pm you sent me but I wanted to thank you

I am so sorry for you and wish I had more to add but wanted you to know we are here to help however we can
