Marty, thanks for the response. I finally got registered on JDA(YEAH!!!!) I am really greatful for everyone's help and answers. I hope I can put all of this information to good use.

Thank you so much for your answer. Sometimes I just don't know what to say to him. He still blames himself for her death. She also was killed in an accident. He believes he should have been with her that day as they were always together. Things were just too busy and she went alone. I do let him talk about her whenever he wants and try not to be jealous. I knew her as we were neighbors. He doesnt believe that God had a reason for her and would leave their son without a mother.

Thanks for the information. I have found Julie's blog but can't seem to get activation to bet part of her discussion group. Maybe she is not accepting new members.

Hi Everyone

I am new here. I am dating a man who lost his wife a year ago. We started out as friends. I was helping him at home with his teenaged son and some house work after he had surgery. Please help me understand and support him in this grief. The one year anniversary is coming soon.
