Hugs to you for all the grief you are experiencing. 🫂
Since you mentioned wanting to feel needed, when you are in a place where you are ready to be more involved, perhaps become an advocate or volunteer with the group that represents the issue your husband suffered from.
For example, my husband has frontotemporal dementia, and there are advocates and volunteers for the AFTD association.
Just a thought; if you need to be needed, there are folks that need you!
All the best. 🌺

@judimahoney Thank you for reminding me what I mentioned to a family member, before my love, Tom, passed away, about getting involved in a group or becoming an advocate for LBD and/or becoming a volunteer in some capacity with Alzheimers Association. It'll just take some time for me to get out there..cuz just like I used to say to Tom..."there's no hurry, this isn't a race" And he seemed to appreciate that everytime I said that 🙂
Thanks for your words of encouragement.
Strength, Peace, Love and Hugs
