Thank you Teresa. We were married 32 years, a second marriage for both of us. As to how I adjusted to leaving his culture, it has been hard. There is such richness within. His home reservation is rural and we had to move to Spokane, WA for better medical services I was already away from the people. After his death, I started releasing the cultural items to appropriate people and places. To go back to non-native culture has been hard. I do not fit as I hold many beliefs and customs within my heart and spirit. And that is right for me.
