@RJMJ Rhonda, thank you for stopping by. It has now been 26 weeks since he has gone. I am coping, but I don't think I will ever stop grieving. It just changes... Hoping that your living situation is somewhat settled, and you are able to deal with your new normal. Be strong, be fearless. Hugs to you as well.

@mcurtt Hi Marilyn...I agree with you...As I go through the stages of grief...I am no expert on it...but I do believe you are correct...I don't believe I will ever stop grieving over the loss of my Beloved Ray...I will somehow,have to learn how to accept things as they are...I feel there's a big hole in my heart that will never be filled again...So,I will always feel this loss & grief somehow...I miss my Beloved Ray,each & every day...in new,old,familiar & different ways...I think you know what I mean...It will be 4 months on the 9th of October...since my Ray has passed away...At least I am no longer living alone...I have taken some comfort in that I guess...My brother has been quite helpful,supportive & kind...He feels bad when I cry...and always asks if there is anything he can do for me...So Sweet!...but you & I know that no one can grieve for us....it is something we have to go through in our own way...& hopefully find a better way to cope & somehow...not cry as often or as much...Hearts & Hugs! to you Marilyn...Take Care of yourself...Thank You! for your kind & very supportive words...I appreciate it so much!!!...Thinking of you...xo Rhonda......
