Thank you for caring.
Was able to go to one grief group last night. so many had it worse with loved ones in pain and having surgeries and serious conditions at the end. My dear wife went quickly which shocked me but I am thankful to God for His mercy on her in having it be quick and without apparent pain.
Two weeks ago today she was buried. Still hard to truly believe this happened and that my life is so empty now.
I have to convince myself all days ahead will not be as bad as these have been. An old friend years ago said like depression trick you into thinking every day like this day will go on forever and unbearable, but that they won’t and someday the hurt will gradually subside and all days will be easier than today was. He later became a lawyer. Haven’t had any contact but remembered that good advice from 1972 or so.
Thanks for your mail.
Best,

Thank you for sharing with us. Praise God that beautiful Joy did not have to suffer before she went “home”.
I pray that He will place you in a grief group that is led by a wise and gentle person, and that in that group you will find friends to help you in your walk through your grief.
Your old friend was wise. In time, hope and peace will replace the grief. You remain in our thoughts and prayers.
