It's funny how many little things remind us of the ones we have lost. This morning, just like every morning, I made my 3-berry smoothie, but when I went to get a straw out of the cupboard, I purposely chose a purple one, simply because that was Patsy's favorite color. I even had a different...

The ladies at my church have been asking me when they can start praying for someone new to come into my life and I've been telling them I am doing okay alone, for now. Each Sunday they ask me and I finally came up with the prerequisites.... I left them speechless when I told them, okay it's...

Hi everyone. I have been gone from this site for a while so it was both interesting and emotional to catch up on everybody..and to meet the new members. I lost my wife on June 4, 2006 and I still have those tough moments but they are getting easier and farther apart. I just returned from...

Had a bad day today... Back to the discussion of those little things that trip your trigger... I had one today. It started right after church when the minister asked how I was doing, and one statement lead to another...that started it. Then I wrote two checks to my sister-in-law. One from our...

We had our company Christmas dinner tonight and I ran across and old friend I hadn't seen all year. As he was leaving he asked me how my wife was doing. At first all I could do was stand and look at him...my mind racing for an answer that wouldn't start the tears flowing. I finally (which was...

Hello to everyone, I posted on the Christian forum last night but was directed to this one this morning. This is the one I was looking for anyway. My wife passed away from IPF on June 4th, after a five year battle and a left lung transplant, and I've about milked the support out of family and...

Hello. Even though I have read a lot of forums, this is the first time I've actually gotten involved in one. I lost my wife in June of this year to IPF and I guess I'm just looking for more support. We were married for 30 years and our 31st anniversary would have been on October 3. That was a...
