My name is Frederick (Rick) Eldridge, I am new here. I am an American who lives in Jordan. The Father called my wife here back in 2015. We began the process of selling and planning our move here in Jordan. We moved here in July 2016. We have seen God move mightily in miracles and people's hearts. On September 8th of September 2022, she died and went on to other assignments with Yeshua. I have to learn what it is to be alone again. It is not easy, but with YHVH's help I am able to get through each day.

Welcome to CF Frederick :wave:

I"m sorry to hear about your loss - the death of a much loved partner is very hard to deal with I know from personal experience. For some time we just 'exist' but slowly , oh so slowly , we return to life , a very different life.

Thank you for your condolences. In three months, it will be one year, over the last 9 months I have had a lot of firsts. First marriage anniversary without her, first move without her, first trip to Israel without her. You know what I mean. Each day is easier than the day before. It is still hard to believe that she is not here. But with God's help I am making it through.

God bless you and welcome to CF. You are lucky to have had a loving wife. Plenty of wonderful memories to accentuate and enjoy. Grief is something we all share in this life. You are certainly correct that dealing with grief is not easy. Thanks for sharing friend. Peace
