    When are you too old to love again?

    I don't think anyone is ever too old to love again. My concern is more of how will I ever love someone again to the depths that I once had. I suppose it's possible with God but right now I feel that I could never love someone as much as I loved my wife. Our love became stronger throughout the...

    my story

    Patches, Just checking to see how you are doing. I just read your story and wanted to see how your holding up. Your story really hit home with me because it was close to what happened to me when I came home and found my wife dead in February. It was a horrifying experience for me so I...

    Wedding ring

    I haven't been around in a few months but dropped by to read some posts and this thread caught my eye. I had taken my wedding ring off and placed it along with my wife's ring and put them in a safe. I had to leave town for a few days and when I returned the safe was missing along with a lot of...

    Thanks for the advice InHisCare to simplify things and that things don't need to be the same. I'm trying hard to make things simple and organized as much as possible. I'm getting better at not stressing if the house is messy or the bathrooms need cleaned. In the big picture of all of this it...

    Well, it will be two months this Saturday that I lost my wife. It seems like it was only a couple of weeks ago. This past week has been my hardest yet. I'm miss her so much and I still can't believe at times that she is really gone. There is such a big void not having her here. I wake up at...

    I appreciate all the advice and support from all of who have posted. I've been reading a lot of posts and it gives me comfort to know that it won't always be as hard as it is right now. Some days are better than others and it seems like the grief comes in waves. When I'm home alone is when it...

    Looks like I need to go to the Christian book store and get busy reading. I'm feeling stronger today after 2 days of feeling depressed and empty. I'm still wondering why this would be God's will for my life but I also have faith that he will walk me through it all. I'm glad I found this place...

    Another Widower Newbie

    (My original post was deleted on accident so I'm going to rewrite it as close as possible) I never thought I would be joining a widow/widower forum but here I am like all of you. I lost my wife February 23rd. I came home to take her to lunch and found her deceased on the garage floor. It was a...

    Helen, Yes the boys and I have been seeing a Christian MFT. I think I'm going to try and find someone who specializes in grief counseling. I feel like I'm just venting and not getting much feed back from him. He's a great guy but I don't feel like we are a good fit. Thanks to all of you and for...

    Pat, thank you for the welcome. It sounds like you are also new to this journey. I don't know your story yet but I'm sorry about your loss. I will keep you in my prayers! I forgot to mention that my wife's death was unexpected. The autopsy revealed that she had a cerebral hemorrhage. It took 4...
