Today would have been my wedding anniversary, 24 years. Since I started couseling and meds I have been doing a little better, but today it all came crashing down on me again. I still can't believe he's not here any longer. I basically just stayed in bed most of the day. I know there are going to be a lot of "firsts" as the holidays approach. I just want to get to a place where I can remember these occassions as happy times rather than dissolve into tears Kathy |

Kathy,
I'm so sorry you had a bad day. I had my hubby for our 46th anniversary last February and also my birthday on Mar. 10th. We celebrated our grandsons 6th birthday on March 22 and my husband passed away on the 25th. So, I, too am having alot of firsts alone and am not looking forward to the holidays at all. No one understands unless they've been through this and there are so many of us on this site who have, so we'll all be here for you. Take care of yourself!

Our anniversary was very hard, too. I don't think there is any way around it. Hard days happen. Time does help. I think tears help, too. We need to shed those to help us become whole again. I don't think we can hurry this process. Next week will be one year since I lost Doug. It is really hard to believe that it has been that long and yet it seems like forever. Take care of yourself and cut yourself some slack. Take it one day at a time. Fay
