February would have been our 60th wedding anniversary but he died 5 years ago. There is no quick and easy fix. I suffered, but eventually the worst of the pain went away. And yes, I seriously considered swallowing a bottle of Tylenol. I called our son and he said ”Mom, throw out the bottle. “ I listened to him and did and I still don’t keep any in the house. But the worst of the grief took maybe 2 years to ease.

The worst of my grief took about two years too. I was told in the beginning that it might last only a year or even less. That wasn’t the case. It has been three years now and things are better. Not necessarily great but definitely better.

Sorry for your loss. The hole in your heart heals over, but it will always be a tender spot. May your memories of your dear companion be a blessing.

Sounds like you have a wonderful, caring son. Best wishes as you move forward on your life path.
