(454 posts)manifests so physically, too. Losing your spouse is a whole different kind of grief. I actually made myself a sign that said Dont go looking for something big; get through the day; get through the night. I hung it up by my computer. My heart just aches knowing what he is facing. Gentle hugs to you, kentuck🩷

(10,329 posts)Every morning we get news of the most recent erosion of our great society.
Kentuck, despite the lessening of grief of my hubby's passing a year ago, knowing he doesn't have to see America sink to Fascism is somewhat comforting.
Sending you a big hug,

(114,130 posts)The good memories of a lifetime spent getting to know someone crowd out the bad memories of the end of that lifetime.
However, until that happens, it knocks us flat.
