Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Partner/SpouseHusband died November 2nd 2006 on all Souls Day of a massive heart attack at the age of 54. Have had a rough time dealing with his death, can't seem to understand the why!!!
Treatments
- Crying Somewhat Helpful
- I cry all the time from morning till night. The loniness is hard.
- Getting Angry Not Working
- I have found myself lately getting angry at the little things. Especially when things start going wrong.
- Grief Counseling Somewhat Helpful
- Being around other's who have also lost thier spouses helps me talk about how I feel without feeling judged by others who don't quite understand what I am going through.
- Keeping Busy Too Soon to Tell
- Trying to find a job, but no luck yet.
- Music Considering
- I have not been able to listen to music. Friday nights were our nights to just sit around, me having a glass of wine and him drinking his beer listening to music on his stereo. I have not been able to turn on his stereo since he died. Maybe one day I will be able to do it, but not now.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- Feeling of peace
- Reading Somewhat Helpful
- Reading books on grief is helping understand that "I Am Not Crazy".
- Remembering Working / Worked
- Remembering the beautiful person my husband was, his beautiful smile with dimples and all, his sence of humor, his love for life, his love for his grandchildren and the wonderful times we had traveling during his time in the military. All of these beautiful memories and more is what keeps him alive now in my heart and always will..
- Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
- I don't have to much support from family. They just don't know what to say to me. All they keep saying is "They know how I am feeling over and over again (which they don't). There's is one cousin who has been my rock, she has been here for me since Jesse's death and I have been there for her since her Mom's death (my god-mother).

Lost the love of my life suddenly to a massive heart atttack November 2, 2006. No goodbyes, no last hug or kiss. How I wish that God would have given us more time together. It's been a year and I miss him so...Nothing I do seems important any more. I take one day at a time because that's all I can do. I go on for my children & grandchildren and because Jesse would want me to, even though I think what for!.
