in Supporting Those Who Have Lost Someone

It's been 6 weeks since my EO LO passed away. I moved across the country to see her one last time - and I made it. But now, I am missing her…memories flood my mind…I know we "lose them" when the disease progresses. But this is hard…still so hard. She is one of the people who has been in my entire life and now she is gone. I miss her.

    Big, big hug. Grief is quite the journey.

    I'm 7 months in this month and have found myself crying more again. I miss my DW so damn much and find myself just drifting along each day. I know I'll get through it, but damn, it's hard.

    You'll get through it too and we're here for you as you do.
