usually we do thru the thread, but not everyone is on at the same times. If they have instant messenger you could do it that way.

Hi,
I`m new to this program also. I am a recent widow as Ray died on December the first 2007. I try to keep busy but that doesn`t take away the aloneness which we have to learn to live it. I pray God will send you the special blessings that you need at this time. Would like to hear from you.

We are all in various stages of grief and those ahead can help guide those who are in the midst of the worst.
My husband died 16 months ago of a sudden, massive heart attack. The paramedics said he never knew what hit him and he never felt a thing. How wonderful to be sitting on the sofa, typing on a computer, and the next second being with the Lord.
While it is wonderful for him, it is hard on everyone else around him. I still expect him to come home from work. I miss him the most when I go to bed at night. Every night it is a reminder that he is gond and I am alone. It's also awful sitting in church alone. I can understand why women I know found a new church when they were widowed. It is so hard worshiping alone when your husband as been by your side for years.
Time softens, it doesn't heal. You learn to deal with it, most of the time anyway. Just remember, there are no rules. Everyone's journey is a different path.
Stay with us here at this site. We know the pain you feel like no others can.

Yes, it is a sad thing to be left here to grieve. I am only 8mo out, so I still have a long way to go. It is so lonesome not having anyone to tell "good-night" to. All my children are grown so I am living alone for the first time in my life. I don't like it!!! I know the good Lord is the only one that can help me get thru this. Please keep me in your prayers.

Hello everyone,
I have only just joined christian forums so am finding my way around. I feel for you all very much.My husband of 50years was fine one minute and suffered a massive brain haemorrhage from which he never regained consciousness. The shock takes a long time to recover from.
It is now 3years that I have been alone. My hope in God has seen me through the tough painful times.
I could write so much but am just thankful to be part of God's amazing family.
Many blessings to you all,
Shanita

Thanks Shanita for the kind words. I was married for 43yrs. He was ill for several years and very ill the last few months. Sometimes I don't know if I can make it another day, but God gives me the strength to face another day. God Bless

I am so glad I found this thread, it is somehow comforting to find I am not alone in this new experience of the loss of one's life partner, and hearing of others' feelings brings some strange sort of relief!
I hope that doesn't sound awful since the last thing one would wish on others is the heartache that we are all feeling. Sometimes life seems meaningless but I believe and pray that we will all, in time, be able to find meaning and purpose in life again!
God is our refuge and strength and underneath are the everlasting arms.
The peace of God be with you all.
love from Shanita

Welcome, Shanita
We all share the same grief here, so we know how you are feeling. My husband of 29 years died suddenly 17 months ago. With just one heartbeat, he was gone. I miss him so much. I have cried everyday for 17 months and when I think there couldn't possibly be another tear left inside of me, I just cry again.
Stay with us, we'll take care of youl.

Helen - you will be in my prayers even more. Are you going to Church this Sunday? Is there a family with children that you could help them dye Eggs for Easter? Or have you thought of visiting people at the nearest Nursing Home who will not have anyone at all to tell them Happy Easter? I know it is tough - it is for me too as my husband was the master egg dyer and I am tired from being busy with my Mom and recent breast cancer surgery. I will most likely go to the Sunrise Service at Church at 7 a.m. then come home and go back to Church at 10 for the normal services. The rest of the day I will spend at home trying to get some rest. No one has contacted me to do anything - which is not unusual for my family - but I am content this year to stay home. I am just flat tired. Work and running for and with Mom has me flat - not sad just flat and I need the rest. I will keep you in my prayers. Maybe Sunday we can chat some UNLESS you get other plans - you do those first my friend.
