It is so hard being a young widow with lil kids toddlers and a baby....I am 6 months into this journey...but I believe God has a plan for me and my boys.....my soul mate does in a car accident....

Lost my husband 4 months ago, there is a hole in my heart

Tough struggle. Thank you for helping me.

I lose my husband last year from liver cancer. We will married for seven years. It still hurts and learning to pressure through with GOD. 🙏🏾😊

Thanks for the testimony. God is Good. Strangely enough my eyes were leaking through much of this.

Thank you. I lost my beautiful wife of 36 years to ovarian cancer January 8 2024. I can relate to the loneliness. The only thing that keeps me going is my faith in God, trying to read his words every day. Cheri was my better half. I feel like a shadow of myself. I feel envious of other couples. Some as simple as having my hair cut, she had cut my hair for 36 years so going to a barber was traumatic.

Well done and articulates all that we go through with profound loss.

Tanya thank you 💜 I’m 41 and lost my husband of 18 years 9 months ago. I’ve powered through for my children but the loneliness is overwhelming. The note you wrote yourself & shared is exactly how I’m feeling & has made me feel less alone and I cannot thank you enough

Thank You :)

Thank you. I am going through this and feel so alone.

What a great, Loving and very truthful podcast. One of the best i have seen since my Beautiful Wife Jan went to Heaven. I struggle everyday and night with extreme LONELINESS.

But widows don't have to be lonely!! Millions of people to spend the remainder of their life with.

My husband has been gone for 16 months. The loneliness is the worst. At 54 our kids are all grown and gone and I'm left alone. It's the worst.

Today is the 31st anniversary of my husband’s death. It still hits me like a sledgehammer. I still love my husband. I still wear my rings. I still speak to him every day. The cruelest comment at my husband’s service: “You’re young. You’ll get married again.” Doesn’t work like that.

I lost my husband 40days ago, we were married for 22yrs, i feel so sad cause i am now alone living on our house, as of now his nieces and sister stay with me during night. I dont know how to start my life without him, i dont even know how to drive our car. He was dead on arrival to the hospital. He was taking his bath when the incident happened, i found hin lying on the floor of our bathroom. He is a very loving husband and i miss him so much😥😥🙏♥️

I lost my husband of 24 awesome years of marriage to sickle cell on the 12 August 23 he was 53 , the doctors say he lived 24 years longer than expected,so I give GOD thanks for the 24 awesome years he blessed me with, but I miss Eugene so much are daughter looks so much like her father so when I look at her I see him so this will be hard.🙏🇧🇸🙏🥰

I lost my husband to kidney cancer. last Mother's Day, May 14,2023 I will have my 1st Thanksgiving, birthday, and Christmas without him. We were married 38 years ago and dated for 2 years. So 40 years of my life I knew him. I am still getting used to dealing with the loneliness. Thanks for your input.

I have been a widower for almost 8 years (lost my wife when we were both 46). Our kids were 9 and 11 when they lost there mom. The things that stand out for me as I look back, was telling a Mom their daughter is never coming home, telling 2 boys their mom is never coming home. That was the worst thing I ever had to do. I remember having my perceived future with my wife wiped out, sitting on the edge of an abyss, and feeling incredibly lonely. So here I am almost 8 years later, and I can say I still feel sad from time to time, but not like it was in the first 2-3 years. Got 1 son off to college, and my youngest is a senior this year. I never remarried, and I actually am enjoying the freedoms of being single. While I am lonely for my wife, I am not lonely. One thing I am glad that I don't get is the sad puppy dog eyes from friends and family anymore. Those early days of not being treated like a normal person, but a broken one, got old after the first 2-3 years. Things do get better, it just takes time.

You don't know that you shouldn't wish you knew what you didn't know, it just makes it harder when you know.

Thank you for sharing this. Finally found someone who UNDERSTANDS what it is like to lose your spouse. I appreciate your encouragement.

All so very true. Hate it.

I 100% relate to this! I’m so sorry that you know this pain! I lost my husband of 35 years last year. I’m so incredibly lonely & broken.

I lost my wife of 27 years 3 months ago. We spent our entire adult lives together. There's not a day goes by that I don't miss her. The pain and loneliness can become unbearable at times.

My husband died 7months ago from consequence of bizarre sports accident playing football while kept innocent in prison. I am devasteted

Thank you ... I never had the chance to say goodbye after 47 years of marriage. Within 24 hours he was gone. I too still can't go to a restaurant by myself. I tried it once as I could see other couples chatting with each other. I would start crying and leave. It has been 18 months n I still miss him so very much .I miss his loving and have intimate moments n his wonderful kisses and him touching my body. I still have his shirt that they cut off him in ER. I keep that shirt under my pillow. Patricia

Oh my God I so relate. I'm older. Sixty four and am almost at the 21 month anniversary of my husband's death. Many similarities. Forty one years married and 44 years knowing each other. I appreciate your sharing. I don't know what else to say but thank you and God bless. ❤

I’m so very sorry for your loss, but if it helps, you’re definitely not by yourself I lost my wife of 54 years. I just don’t know what I’m gonna do without her.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am going through the same thing I lost my wife of 54 years my soulmate. I just don’t know if I can go on without her.

Thank you so much for being so true with how you feel and thank you for sharing I thought I was going insane but now I know I'm not alone with all the thoughts and emotions 😢you gave me hope ❤ I'm a widow now for nine months and it very hard...God bless you for being true to the world 🙌

Really nice words, I lost my wife of 39 years 5 month ago and now I guess that this is really hitting me the hardest. It just not that easy, sure I tell everyone I am ok and they see me smiling but no one see the pain, sorrow and loneliness that I we have to go thru just to make it thru some days. I think we are all really thankful because there is so much good information on grieving on the internet. If it would not been for my faith in Jesus I really do not know how I can survive this. Blessing to all that are going thru this there will be better times as this pain will not last forever.

Thank you for sharing this. I'm a widow today of 7 months, and I cried all the way through. It has forever changed my life and me. I feel lost but trying to make my way through. Bless you and your family.

😢 *promosm*

Thank you for sharing your story. I lost my husband of nearly 40 years last year on July 19 (technically July 16 because he did not regain consciousness after a sudden heart attack in our home.) I can relate to much of your story. In my case, both of my girls are married and on their own. I retired just 2 weeks prior so I was faced with being suddenly totally alone and needing to figure out exactly how I was going to live in my new reality. There are so many emotions and adjustments that occur that it can be overwhelming. In addition to some of the things you mentioned I also felt guilty for feeling like I should have done more for him or guilty for feeling sorry for myself for the loss of the future we had planned. Also fear that if he could die so suddenly and unexpectedly than maybe so can I. As you said you are forever changed by the loss but there is so much to live for and moving forward is the only way to go. My youngest daughter is pregnant with our first grandchild and while I am very happy I am also very sad that they will only know my husband through photos and our memories of him. Tske care.

Tanya and Sarah. This was an amazing episode. I appreciate your brutal honesty and lack of judgement.

Beautiful you two ❤❤ Thank you for sharing and May God continue you Bless you both BIG !

Woke up this morning, turned on the computer. You are so encouraging. Widowhood began 7 months ago. very lonely.

Great topic, there arent enough videos like this.

The belief system you talk about is so real and how I grew up! At 60 years old, change is difficult although I would love the change!

MORE PLEASE. The secret to YT success = Promo`SM .

So encouraging as a parent of young adults who have struggled. Thank you for sharing 💓

Tell me you have no useful thoughts without telling me you have no useful thoughts... Oh wait, you just did.

OMG , you are so brave !!

I'm distracted by her overly tight dress LOL she's so pretty though

no one is asking you anything

EMDR saved my life.

Thank you for sharing this topic. I have so enjoyed your new podcasts.

What a great episode. Bailey you are an amazing women, so strong and courageous. Your story made me cry, but the love you have for your family(especially your siblings) makes me smile so big. You are going to do amazing things in your life and I look forward to watching you Rise!

You message is so important. Thank you for sharing. My husband passed in August. His breathing had changed slightly and I didn’t insist he see a doctor to find out why. By the time he did see a doctor he had Stage 4 terminal cancer. Anything out of the ordinary should be looked into. I’m sorry for your loss and mine. God bless you and may He continue to bring you peace.
