      From jmk1973 March 21

      Helen, I just wanted to say thank you for always understanding me and how I am feeling. People seem to think that I should be back to "normal", by now. After all, Sam has been gone over two years now!! I was in love with and married to him over half of my life. Two years means nothing. I have tried everything thart I could think of to "move forward" with my life. Nothing helps and I am just tired of trying. I see people all the time, that think I should "be over it by now". They just do not understand that my heart was basicaly ripped from my body when Sam died. The very light went out of my world. I know that you understand and aare in the same situation too. Thanks, for always being here for me...Love, Julia

      Thanks for the tips..I use to love to read, but since Rog died I haven't done much of it. I don't have a problem going and doing things outside of the house,but in the house is hard. I am putting puzzels together, redoing and painting the inside of the house..I just can't seem to over come tonight..I have times like this~~I hope your evening is going well!!

      Type: Loss of a Partner/Spouse

      My dear husband was diagnosed Mar 10,2006,suffered with esophagheal for 3 months and died on June 24th,2006

      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      I especially broke down on Mar 10 because I am having flashbacks of "the beginning of the end"
      Grief Counseling Somewhat Helpful
      I see a therapist privately and go to group therapy. It gves you a place that you can cry/ The worls doesn't want to see my grief.
      Prayer Not Working
      I prayed hard when we got the bad news and for a miracle. Since then I ahve lost my faith
      Psychotherapy Considering
      would like to try it.
