I am glad this video meant something to you...I really was frightened by my lack of desire to live. What I can tell you is that slowly I have learned to enjoy the sunshine, count my many blessings, and to live a life that Phil would be proud of. I hope all of these things for you to, even if you can't imagine them right now.

When I first heard you say that the women that was married to your husband died with him I was very sad. But I know that is true for be also and have to except that. I too don't care if I die.

Thanks for the video.

Thank you for sharing - I wanted to be with my husband too - I still do, I am more at peace with the idea of going on past the veil. But, you are right, I do not want to kill myself, I would not take it into my own hands. It does lessen over time too... Thanks for being brave to share these feelings.

I am so glad I stumbled on this video. I was widowed two months ago, and you spoke to exactly how I currently feel. Your statement about how the person that you were died with your husband was an epiphany for me. Thank you.
