And that's ok.

I can’t find part one

Senoia! Makes me homesick. I’m from that area and miss it so much!

I’ve been a widow for 44 years. Never remarried and I still don’t remember those things you’re speaking about. My husband was killed in a trucking accident. I just got that ugly call in the night. And it’s all that same with fair warnings or the dreaded phone call 12:49 we were married 13 yrs. 4 sons to get threw school.

Thanks Leo! I hope you know how much your videos are helping me to cope with life now. When I’m really having trouble second guessing everything that’s happened the last few weeks I listen and let a type of calm happen. It helps so much to have a voice of reason nearby. 💔🙏🏻

When people r married fora long time, like 10 or 20 yrs, they become codependent. This is y grief is so painful. U become almost 1 person. U pay bills together, raise kids together, make financial decisions, and travel together.When u r suddenly alone, u have to adjust to making choices by yourself.

I still have widow brain, and it's been almost 7 years since my husband died. I'm SO tired of being stupid!!

Where are u no videos? I miss u hope ur ok

Yes ma'am....roller coaster of grief!!

My fella always loved a bit of dark humour - the darker the better - to the point he played dead with me when the hospital called me in urgently! He was very insistent that I tell jokes about his "situation" in my own comedy set.

It has been six months now i lost my husband last year December. It's still feels like it happened yesterday, the pain of losing him is so hard. Somedays i forget and be as if i have healed, but surprisingly out of nowhere it starts again. I miss him and start again. It feels crazy uncontrolled emotions.

Your story is my exact story! Thanks so much for sharing. I lost my beloved husband on April 1st, 2024. I had the same emotions. I thank God for you.❤

Wow. In 3yrs how your channel has grown. I have been a widow since 2016. Our children were adults so I know I was fortunate. 3 yrs later our 31 yr old daughter passed, leaving a husband and three children. Thank God for the grandkids!

I lost my husband in 2017 also. I can honestly say I am happy. I miss him terribly but I am out living my life. I became a camper/traveler at 3 months after the loss. I've never stopped. I am retired. Money, oh yes I lost half my income when he died. We had just built a new house. So I was terrified about money. I finally figured it out. I lost many friends, even church friends. The groups I was a part of didn't want me any more. I was single now!! I know what you are saying. I had to make many changes. But I am happy I made them.

I love the dead dad card and doing it sad. Thank you.

I relate with every single thing you’ve said. I lost my hubby in Oct 2021 and every year since then I feel guilty that we’ve left him in 2021. That he’s missed all these beautiful milestones of our now 3 teenagers. 2 driving, all 3 high schoolers this year & one going to college next year.

Thank you for articulating exactly what I am thinking. I am currently processing the secondary losses. The secondary losses continue to evolve as you grieve. You feel like you are in survival mode all the time. My husband died 8 months ago. Your videos give me a lot of comfort. You understand, thank you for understanding.❤

I love all these specialized terms for grief. Sin is the reason why there is sickness and why we die. Why there is evil in the world. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Romans 6:23 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 [1]Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; [2]By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. [3]For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; [4]And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

I dated a Widow for a year. Besides being treated worse than the Family Dog - She called me by the Ex's name on numerous occasions. But one thing she did VERY WELL.....was spend the crap outta my money. Nothing was too expensive. Widows....I sympathize with you and I am sorry for your loss... but don't take your heartache out on somebody that really loves you and wants the best for you.

His mother's behavior was seemingly very selfish. It wasn't 😂the reaction of a loving person. Had she truly loved her son, she would have wanted him to be with his children as she wanted to be with her child. It seems there may have been an adversarial relationship. Maybe the mother felt as if her son was stolen from her. Maybe she felt helpless, and her decision gave her control once again over her son. I hope this widow (I can't recall her name) will think of her children and allow them access to their grandmother. I didn't hear her mention any religious beliefs. I hope her husband was saved before his death. I encourage her to keep the door open for her mother-in-law should she realize the selfish nature of her actions and ask for forgiveness. All this said, may God bless this woman and her new husband and her children with a bright new life ahead.

So glad I found you. My husband died in September 2023. I identify with so much. I really got upset over the fact that I couldn’t touch or hug him anymore because of his pain. I miss his touch so much.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I learned that I don’t wanna count on anybody. I’m very independent, but there are times since I live on a homestead that I need a man to do something around the property work very very seldom. Do I pay someone to do a job? I do it all I realize if I wanna eat I cook me a meal if I need something from town I have to go get it everything‘s on me, but he left me well and I’m OK. It’s been 10 years but I think about him every day still miss him every day. I do have crying spell still, but therefore then they were but I miss him so much missing your loved one will never go away I just praise the Lord that one day. I will see him in heaven and I’m working to the best I can so I can get there.😂❤

This video was more than great. 💔😥 You said SO many things that are truly of the things we go through. SO much.... I felt like I was losing my mind. I needed him to go through grief...!!!!!! We were married 51 years....that's hard to have to "be one" again........💔 Thank you for ALL you said. NOTHING you said was strange to me. Thank you .......😘🙏 22:35

I am so glad to hear the 6 month milestone is real for others. It is tough.

My husband recently passed from a rare cancer 8 months ago, i can relate to you, God bless you hugs and prayers😥💕💕🙏

You did a good job of enumerating all the emotions and other things you went thru' . So much is not understood about what grieving does to us. Until we go thru' this....we absolutely do not know all the feelings. Thank you for your video. My husband died a few months ago.....quite suddenly. We were both retired.....and did everything together. It creates such a void....the description of marriage... "The two shall become one!" It is neither quick nor easy....to become one again. 💔😥🙏

That’s where I’m at right now, I don’t have the support I feel I need, but I’m don’t know how to process through😢

Thank you so much for your video, I lost my husband of 45 yrs. On February 20th of 2024. I related to all 12 things on your list. I’m so hopeful in hearing that the way I’m feeling that I am normal. 🙏🙏

To share my experience, I lost in the period of two years - my husband, father, father in law, nephew. Basically all my male support system and people to rely was gone. In this way we bacame three widons - my mother, my mother in law and me. You can imagine all the emotional reactions and conflicts we had and still have, whithout male energy balancing us. My mother in law is controlling in some aspects, my mother is narcisit, I’m literrary in between, and as beeing an empath, I feel stretched and squeezed all the time. I try to distance myself, but my kid still needes his grandmas and that pulls me back to conflicts. However, sometimes when I go to funerals of people that I was not so attached to, but I go to support their family, as I assume they need support as I did back then. When I watch how people react, as if I see myself from aside when I was grieving, this is so consuming and overwhelming feeling, it is capable to outloud having that person in our life after all and just accept that the time has come to say goodbye. And then I tell myself that it is so hard to put that in practice as I keep struggling to accept and let go of pain and grief.

I lost my partner and son.. suddenly 😭 within months of each other..I've cried for months..and have no interest in life outside my house isolated myself...I'm always got people trying to get me out of the house..but I have no desire xo❤

Thank you for this x It's now been a year since my long term partner passed away, lots to relate to here. How mind blowing it is that I'm living through a year that he isn't. Driving past stations that he used to drive his train through can be triggering. And the inappropriate comments! First prize going to one of my loaders at work, who suggested that I should "Get yourself back out there, gel! Get on the dating apps!" No. Just no.

Part one was too much, too soon for me to hear. But I will be ok. I'm seven months into the loss of my husband. Thank you for your honest videos on difficult subjects. I'm sure you help many people. That mother-in-law is a POS!

My husband died fall 2023 after a 2 year progressive lung disease. He was suffering terribly. If you can't breathe, nothing else matters. I was relieved initially, then the constant crying started. Adrenaline kept me moving for months. I made all the transitions within 3-4 months. Kept me busy. Then depression hit. Especially painful when I unexpectedly see something of his. Yes, so true...people end reaching out at 6 months. It has only been 7 months since he died. My parents and husband all died within a four year period. I still have a lot of decisions to make. Especially whether or when to sell my house, move out of state, try to find a job. We were together 39 years, married 36 years. We had no children. I have a loving daughter from a previous marriage, but she lives far from me. Your video has helped me so much. I am very isolated. The acquaintances I have here can't relate to my situation and feelings. I will continue watching your excellent videos. ❤️

Thank you so much for doing this video. I have grieved for a little over 2 years. First of all my husband of 16 years walkes out and left me for a family friend that called us mom and dad. She was even married to a woman and now they are married (She went after his money) once I got over that shock I was feeling lead to contact my first high-school love. We were engaged in high school from 1979 till 1983. But things didn't work out. Greg was my first LOVE and my first everything. Well I knew he had beaten lung cancer 10 years before this time. Covid was here and he was still on a few pain meds since he had lots of chest pain from scar tissue from his cancer surgeries. Anyway we were getting back together after all these years, we were both so happy to have found each other again. He was living with his dad taking care of him. Well Greg's doctor talked him into getting that Covid shot. He got it and within 2 days he was so sick with Covid. He beat that and when the second shot came due I begged him not to get it but again his Dr begged him. So he did and in 3 days my love was dead! I couldn't believe it. We are still not gonna be together. I am 59 and ready for love again but I don't even leave the house except for groceries. I don't want to be married again just with a good man that can love me and I him. Thanks for allowing me to pour my heart out. I don't even know how to meet someone new. I am disabled but am still fighting for my disability. I believed my ex when he promised to give me money to continue living the way I was use to with him but after one year he took off with her and stopped paying me. Now she does get his money. He will soon know he made a mistake but I will never take him back. Any advice please send it my way. Otherwise please pray for me. I live In SC. Hugs to you!

I'm 37 and my husband passed away 6 months ago. It really is a very lonely place to be. We have 4 small children aged 12-2.

Im 42, pancreatic cancer, and so incredibly grateful for my husband during this time. He has taken me to every infusion. Ive always loved him more than i thought possible, but recently told him he could give me a 10 carat diamond ring right now, and i couldnt feel more loved than he has made me feel on this journey. I dont know what id do without him. Before my diagnosis, i was planning to be his caregiver in about 7/8 years, as he was diagnosed with a kidney disorder last year, and his kidney function declines with each lab visit. It breaks my heart to think of not being there for him....i pray i am.

Thank you for your video. You put words to so of my thoughts and feelings I have felt since I lost my husband two years ago. We were married over 56 years, having been sweethearts since we were teens. I watched him die over 15 months while doctors kept telling us he was going to recover. The grief I feel now is not only the loss of my life partner, but the loss of our plans, our dreams, the sharing of our memories together, and the physical touch. What I would give for one of his tender hugs and a sweet “Good morning, Honey.”

I can relate to all of these things. I think the hardest thing in the loss of my husband was that he took his life. He first tried in January 2019 and then succeeded in October 2019. The time leading up to both instances was extremely traumatic. There are far too many details to share, but I can say that hardest part was the manner in which he died which is extremely painful and I still have so many questions now, 4 1/2 years later. My 3 children still suffer similar pain, and their pain becomes mine as their mother. It's very hard to watch them struggle through their pain. But we are all moving forward. Our family is extremely close. All 3 of my children have gotten married since then, and I have 3 grandchildren. My husband missed all of this. My faith and the faith of my children has grown exponentially as we move forward. We support and encourage one another, and try to live lives enriched with love and laughter. Grief is not a linear thing, and its visits are unpredictable , but the strength of our faith and family carry us through. I'm thankful for videos like this.🤍

Saying “fifty years was not enough” was my mantra for four months….I am not saying it everyday anymore. It is like a knife in my heart everyday.

February 19th…it’s been 3 months. I miss him so very much. I wish your group was close.

I am just like you. I had to let all of his things go

I lost my husband in October 2023 and we were 4 months away from moving so I had a yard sale and got rid of all of his clothes and his stuff. He was a little bit if a hoarder/collector. I could on go through his things in 30 minute intervals before I started crying.

I am coming up on 3rd year next month and I have to say it was harder the 2nd year. I have just now gotten to the point where I can go to the cemetery without becoming a total wreck

This is a great video. I have lost two wives by death. Each one was different. My first wife was ill for about 5 years, my second was ill for about 6 months. My first wife died in a hospital my second in a hospital bed at home. When I called 911 the fire department an ambulance and the police all arrived about the same time. All were very kind. The police officer call the funeral home for me. I suspect many people have no idea what all has to be done when someone dies. You will discover funerals are very expensive. You have to deal with benefits from insurance companies, retirement plans and Social Security. It may take weeks or longer. My sis ter in law was amazed how I delt with everything, of course I had had to do it before making it somewhat easier.

I lost my wife 7 months ago, I had no thoughts about dating again, but I had a friend recommendation come up on Facebook, who was a girl I was with for over 6 years from school into our early 20’s. We chatted went out for a drink and hit it off immediately, we are now very much in love and getting engaged. This would not have happened with anyone else.

Grief is messy....always sad scared to open doors for new love....i hate this feeling and my boy already says i mist find them another dad😅

My anger wasn't at him, it was because, at 80, I was left to fend for myself at a very vulnerable time.

I’m 8 weeks out. My wife was an alcoholic and died from pancreatitis. She was warned 2 years go to stop drinking but she kept going and now here we are. My therapist suggests that my grieving started along time before she passed. My adult children seem to think it is too early. I am ready to move on. I don’t want to get married again. But I do need female company.

Its been 25 years and I still see him in my dreams and it is so real then in my dream I realize he is not alive and I am so sad. Thanks for letting me express a snippet of being a widow.

Its been 7/1/2 years since my husband passed. There are times I feel sad.
