Requesting Medical Examiner's Photos

Hugs. I hope you are still seeing your counselor. Give yourself time. -

Hold your head high. I've been through that sheer panic. There is no hiding upit. It is organic, feels crazy but is completely normal. Hugs

It absolutely honestly got better. I was disabled before he died. I lost half my income then all of his. Basically 75% of my income. I can not possibly express how defeating and scary that was. I took guardianship of his handicapped son. Dealing with social security sends me straight to my bed. one day at a time, staying in the moment, a whole bunch of counseling and time have helped. it will be 6 years soon. I got dealt a shitty hand. Didn't always handle it gracefully but I no longer feel widowhood is to blame for everything. We each take the time it takes.it ebbs and flows as MS said. Some day you will look around and see life may be diffucult but somehow it is no longer a compkete disaster

It is illegal for a potential employer to ask your marital status . Best of luck in your interview.

People cant buy organs. Wealthy people have the resources to go where more organs are available. Thats why it seens they get them at a higher rate. There are all kinds of drama tv shows that have horrible made up black market stories. They are your organs and you have every right to keep them. I'm proud of our gift and it does no one any good to think the gift went to some creep. It is done. This isnt some movie script to those of us that made the gift of life, those who died waiting for a life saving donation or the 123,000 americans waiting right now. 21 people in tbe US will die today waiting for a life saving transplant. Feel free not to donate. That is absolutely your right. l assume all who would not donate would also not be willing to receive .

My heart goes out to you. When I started feeling very fragile about rejection and the lack of honesty and consistency in the dating word, I took a break from dating. A very long one. I feel better. I just can't do this if I am going to feel suspicious and obsessive. It is exhausting. Im not saying that is the solution for you. It is working for me. I need someone who loves the cynic out of me I guess. good luck. Sending a hug.

Ive been on the marrow registry for at least 20 years. Im told i wouidnt be a suitable donor any more. You just need to be swabbed now. I gave blood!
-
The mainbp reason I advocate, other than the dire need us so oeopke wont have to make the decision in the worst moment of their lives as I did.I know people have had very positive experiences meeting. Some donor families resent not hearing from the recipients. Its a gift. It is so individual and personal.

Does This Mean You'll See Me Naked?

I have a friend who does pick ups and embalming and another who upis a funeral director. They are both professional and caring. My friend embalmed both his grandmothers. I cant say it is just clinical because he really cared. They handled the drop off and pick up for cremation and the funeral and burial of the cremains. I trust them both very much and would feel safe having them handle me. Im the most modest personIi know. -

Sad but sounds like you and your daughter are doing the right thing. You need to care for yourselves not these other people. -
I cant keep track. Thank you!

My daughter has a friend who is a home ec teacher. They did the pillows themselves all different shapes there was a book but ut seems to be out of print. Check out pinterest and you tube tutorials. A local seamstress would probably do it inexpensively.

I wasnt the least bit physically attracted to my husband when we met. He had a chance usually 5 days a week for me to get to know what a great guy he was. We had a friendly rapport. He was funny, reliable and very kind. He treated me like royalty. He very obviously had feelings for me, I had none other than platonic. Then after almost 6 months, I caught up. I fell madly in love. We had a wonderful marriage. it isnt likely to happen this way again for me. We are an instant gratification society right now. I no longer work or have a regular schedule where sonething similar develops. Online dating there are just too many options. Even if a date is great and there is chemistry, there's a line up of more dates waiting in the computer. Also the lack of honesty and plain old fashioned caring and kindness I just don't find out there. Mike had a chance to build trust. Trust is more important to me than physical attraction. The attraction followed when I fell for him. For me, attraction might be good for dating but not a life long relationship. Ill take the ugly guy that I can count on when Im sick and bitchy or in crisis. The one who adores me when i roll out of bed with a rats nest of hair and mismatched pjs. His looks dont matter by then.

I recently started thinning again. This is the 3rd time in my life, it can be stress, meds, vitamin deficiency, autoimmune, hormones or heredity. I find it very distressing, I use the Nioxin hair care system. I've had very severe alopecia aeteata in the past so now I waste no time getting to the dermatologist for an evaluation. Good luck.
