Thank you for sharing your own personal journey of grief. Following the recent loss of my dear wife, your videos are such a helpful reassurance; the emotional maelstrom of grief I'm experiencing is so similar to yours, I feel I can better understand, process and go on to cope with my own personal grief.

I never make it through one of your videos without crying. My grief is new. It's been 107 days since I lost the love of my life, Rosie, my wife of 51 years. I was especially affected by what you said about guilt. At 75 years old, there's probably not time for me to ever love again, and even if a miracle sent someone my way, I know the guilt of loving someone new would be overwhelming for me. But thank you for your videos. They are so very helpful knowing that others can love again and perhaps find someone to take some of the pain away.

Some of us abuse drugs and alcohol. I have been clean for 5 years and 10 months. So grateful for the people who helped me to start the healing process.. Love from NYC

You have touched on every single thought I have had again! I saved this video without watching, was hesitant because I can’t even think about finding someone else. I just think that as one gets older it is harder to find someone, there are more available women than men as well. I do have animals and I am dreading losing one of my sweet cats. I guess time will tell! Thank you!

I look forward to your future videos...subscribed and got all notifications on. You are helping me so much on the loss of my dear husband

Your videos are so helpful. You should have many more people subscribing, as your contributions are so valuable.

Thank you for your kind encouragement.. hoping these videos will reach and help more people. Sending love and comfort to you 🥰

if I loved him more, if I knew he was leaving, if I had been a better wife, if if if if. I'm swallowed with the 'if's of grief. Guilt, remorse, regret, shame all become amplified in the deep sigh of a wounded soul. I'm not young, I don't want to meet someone else after spending over 60 years with my precious husband. From what I have learned through all this is that men seem to want to replace their loved one far more than women. I know what love is so I have no fear about a new relationship, I simply don't want one and that is also good enough. I am becoming a whole new me and redefining what it is to be human.

There is certainly no right or wrong as to whether we are alone or we find another relationship after loss. You were married for a lifetime which is very precious and rebuilding life on your own as a whole person is commendably courageous.. the what ifs and if onlys are very tough leading to guilt and regret. Letting your mind go over these thoughts is a way of trying to make sense of what is so painful. Be gentle with yourself and sending love 🥰 x

Thank you for what you have shared. I lost the love of my life about seven months ago. A dear pastor friend called three months before she passed and said that he had a word for me from the Lord. It was that the best part of my life lay yet ahead. Little did I know what lay ahead. As you all know, it has been so hard. Then three months ago He told me that I would love again. That it would be even better than before. His promises can not fail. They always come to pass. His love for us is so incredible. I do not feel worthy. However, I know that I have something to look forward to. Trust Him. He is going to lead us all through this journey. Just do not give up.

Thanks Susan .. I never expected love again and neither did my husband. You can still love them and honour them in a new relationship. Love never dies ❤️ x

I lost my partner/husband of 20 years to Glioblastoma brain cancer a little over 2 years ago, it's painful and consuming, words can't describe, the palliative care journey of 9 months was so hard. I did meet someone that turned out to be a liar and a narcissist last summer, I left the relationship after 5 months. He might have seen me as vulnerable, he was a director of heath care and deals with death and dying so I felt a connection because of that. I have not wanted to date since then, I do not want to go on app's.The way I see it is if it happens organically great, if not thats ok. I wont settle just to make others happy. I will hold the 20 years I had close to me until I die and see him again.

Thank you❤
