    About Me

    I am a 43 year old mom of three wonderful boys ages 8, 14,21 and recently ten days now lost my husband suddenly to a heart attack. I am very devastated and lost right now with alot of fear, anger sadness and don't know where to turn I no longer know what to believe in I feel like I lost half of myself and will never feel whole again. Thought it would help to talk to people who are living this nightmare that I am trying to live and maybe gain some insight and knowledge on just how to cope .

      Hi again maggie I forgot to ask how your kids are doing.Are you going for any theropy? I need to go back for mine after I move. My son really needs to start his also.I find my son has different days where he is happy and ok and then some days he's filled with anger and he doesn't know why. I try to help him but it's very hard. I hope your kids are taking it easy on you. I remember in the begining how fragile I felt and even now some days I still feel like I could fall apart.This is the hardest thing I have ever been threw and hopefully for you and your family this to will be the hardest you will have to face.By that I mean I hope from here out things get easier for you. Do you have family arround you to help.? Well take care of yourself. Hopefully we can speak again soon. LOri

      Hi maggie I'm ok. Not really ok I'm moving out of my house next Saturday sept 6th and it's really starting to hit me. I'm glad to be moving because I will save money and the memories hurt to much. But the memories hurt to leave also. It's so weird. My neice is getting married this Friday Aug 29th. I can't believe it's here already and I feel bad because I'm kinda dreading it instead of excited for her. I'm afraid I will cry alot and make her sad. I don't want to ruin her day at all. Well enough about me. How are you doing? I hope your well thanks for checking on me and saying hello. have a wonderful day. Lori

      I just lost my husband my best friend ten days ago. I don't know how I will get through this. I have 3 sons and don't know what to do for them either. My loss was very sudden my husband had a heart attack so we are all in shock. don't think I will ever feel whole again and don't know where to go to talk to people who truly know what I am feeling and what helps them cope. I am just numb

      Hello I just lost my husband 10 days ago and it was very sudden. I don't know where else to turn right now and thought meeting people here who have suffered this kind of loss is a good place to start. I have three boys to raise and want to be the best I can be for them, all the things people say I need to be now but I am so so scared I lost a big part of myself when my husband passed away and right now I don't feel like I will ever be whole again.
