It’s so difficult to get over grieving. I didn’t lose a spouse but I have lost my family from childhood. I only have some second cousins left who all live far from me. I do have a husband and two wonderful sons but it still hurts so much losing the family I had as a child. Losing my husband of 34 years would be devastating.

Good morning, @healthyme246 I agree 100% with you about grief. The only thing I have come to believe is the loss is always with us because we loved so intensely! I've come to be OK with this view and embrace it as a way for me to cope with losses in my life.

I'm now the only remaining 'elder' of our family and that often gives me pause, but also helps me continue on each day as I celebrate that a bit!

Strength, Courage, & Peace
