Perhaps this should be in "Well Wishes" ...today should have been my husbands 61st birthday. I try very hard not to predict, plan or predetermine how these still present 'days' should play out. I have learned to simply let them be what they are and let me 'be' how I need to be....For the first time since his death, today brought muses of how the day would have been if he were still alive...fantasies I guess. Mostly, as the day draws to its end, what I get from this is realizing how far I have come, how very much I lost and how far I have to go BUT the big news for me is that WE ALL HAVE FAR TO GO sooooo I am right where I need to be. Tears and all.

I did my annual 'remembrance' celebration and feel good. Strangely perhaps, knowing you are here, helped.

One more biggie in July...our anniversary - July just kicks my butt. You are the greatest bunch of strangers i could have ever hoped to come across, so again, thank you all!

Three and a half years. I was so very blessed/lucky to have shared my life with him.

I bet, always cherish those times, remember them when you feel sad, that you were able to have those moments with him while he was here.

How long were you two married?

Ten years. There was a time I didn't think I'd see a week then a month...at least now I know that time does pass and bring change. Thank you so much for your kind offer, not all of truly know about those 'days'. I may just take you up on your offer...grief is a weird, powerful bond, don't you think?
