My thoughts for all of us that work'd thru this holiday, with the thoughts for our loved one's gone before us.

I WISH ALL OF YOU HAPPINESS THIS HOLIDAY.
HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR. I AM PUTTING A TREE UP THIS YEAR ITS BEEN 3YRS I JUST HAVE TO MOVE ON IF IAM GOING TO BE ALONE I JUST HAVE TO FACE IT AND TRY TO BE HAPPY

I was just trying to find a way to remove my profile from this site and found this instead. Hope everyone has a good holiday season. I have been a widow twice now and "it does get better."
However, when I started dating again and things didn't work I always felt the loss of my husband again. Painful memories become easier. Instead of making you cry, you will find comfort in them. Bless us all.

now how do I get my profile off this site.

Too bad you don't stay for the forums :) Yeap don't like this pain from dating relationships not working. Hey Green eyes good to see yah :)

SORRY TO SEE YOU GO CAITRINA THIS SITE HAS HELP ME ALOT B EING ON HERE!!!!

I am not used to replying to these forums,but, I was reading Rainbows responses and felt I should. I also lost a son and husband. I knew my husband was terminally ill but kept hoping for eight and a half years that things would be better.
On the last day of his life he said" Please don't grieve for me. Go on with your life. I'll have no more pain and I will be at peace. My last wish is that you will be at peace."
Altho I loved this man better than life itself, I when on raising kids and all the normal things in life. I grieved in my own way but thought about my husbands last words. It did give me peace. Altho I will never forget him, I know he will never suffer anymore.
My son was killed at age 16 in an automobile accident. Unidentifiable. To lose a mate is heartbreaking: to lose a child is devastating.
So, I know your pain. It's the good memories that sustain us.

I too lost my wife and daughter 7 years ago,As the days seemed to drag on forever and the pain seemed to never go away..I kept remembering the words of encouragement she would give me after a long tough day at work..I have now just decided that I am ready to start dating again, and even though they are forever in my mind and heart..I know that they would be the happiest if I was happy.. God cannot give you back those that you lost, but he holds you in his arms till you can walk again and only he can heal your broken heart..

You all need to drop down to the "50's" thread & lets work thru these holidays together.

Never gets easier, we just get more practice.

HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS
LOVE GREENEYES

I too, lost my husband (mar 07) and my mom (oct 07). My husband had been sick for seven yrs with alzheimers and had 2 back surgerys... he suffered so much... My mom was 84, had heart surgery( she would have died if she didn't have it)Came thur the surgery fine and 4 wks lated died of congestive heart failure..I thought I was ok when he died but when my mom passed, I almost shut down..Both are in a better place but I miss them so much..This holiday was a little better. The only thing that helped last yr was that all 4 of my children were home and speaking to each other..
(2 of them had a falling out in 1999 when their father died and hadn't spoken in 8 yrs)It was like a christmas miracle...Bless you all for helping others get thru one of the hardest times of our lives...
Happy New Year and may this yr be a better one for all of us!!

I lost my husband few years ago and it has not been too easy for me to forget it.

Hi everybody! It's been a while but I see a lot of new faces and wanted to welcome everyone. Ammy, I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my husband to cancer when I was 35 so I feel you.

By the way...this thread IS for working thru things.

ammy, we never forget. It will be 12 yrs this May for me. Gwen was the best thing ever happened to me. You do what is right for you & go on.

Dottie was a wonderful friend to me and our picture still comforts me.

My anniversary was Feb. 14. It would have been 18 years.

Iam sorry my heart goes out to you.

I have good days and some bad ones too. I think thats normal.

Good morning, my anniversary is Feb 12 and would have been 28 yrs for us.. I lost him in Mar 07. I still have some really bad days but try to keep busy with friends and family.. Lost both my hubby and mom in 07, 6 mo apart...
