    Hi Jen,

    No motivation here at all.  I used to go to the health club several times a week.  No more and I am getting weaker.  How much weaker can an 80 yr. old feel?  Used to do things with several church groups.  No more.  Lunch once a week with my friend.  Don’t see her anymore.  Do not even see neighbors.   The grief is horrible and now we add all this.  I wanted to work in my messy closet, but I have not done it.  It is too hot to walk outside, so I just walk back and forth in the house.  Hope those riots do not start up again on the weekend.  Hope you get out a little today, Jen.

      I didn’t know there was this kind of messaging here.  Took me by surprise.  Sounds like such long horrid days for you.  I am familiar with them tho I’ve managed some escapes.  Getting less helpful because they are so hard.  All my stuff has dried up too.  I know we aren’t the only people in this predicament, but it’s hard to keep hat in mind and does it really help knowing we aren't the only ones?  I mean, what does hat change for us living it?  I guess knowing we aren’t some kind of freak.  That’s the best I can come up with.  Sorry you are having heat.  That would be the topper here.  I know its coming  someday and will have to tackle that.  I don’t even care about the riots anymore.  Burned out on all the chaos.

      Hi Kevin,

      I posted the saying in Who is a true friend and who is not.  I've posted several times over the months for people that get to that stage they find people have changed so much around them and didappearances as well as finding supportive people where you least expected them.

      The saying is....grief rewrites your address book.  

      Hope that helps.

    hi Gwen,

    thanks for your encouraging words.  I am glad this forum exists for us folks.  This is a hard, hard road for us all.  Sometimes I feel as though I do nothing all day.  I miss him so much.

      Hi Gin,

      i just found this as I don't think to check messages.  I'm pleased whatever I said helped.  So many have helped me.  I can't imagine going thru this without the people I have found here.  

      I know that feeling of not doing anything all day and hate it.  Sometimes I remind myself that just getting out of bed us an accomplishment.   If is a time to be as encouraging of ourselves as I have come to see the outside world hasn't got a clue of what this is like.  

      I keep missing my guy more every day, unlike the perception I will 'get used to it'.  Nothing is farther than the truth.  Each day is just a longer time without that love and connection that we forged and made us complete.  

      My very best to you.

       

      Gwen
