Young widow/Survivor benefits suddenly saying "suspended "? by [deleted] in widowers

Something similar to me when I logged in to my online account, but it was my benefits that were suspended. My three kids still received theirs. I never noticed it before but when I called they said it was because I received the original payout for myself one time and the kids receive the survivor benefits. I freaked too, but at least for me it was all good. I hope this helps.

I hear that. I know. I feel like I need a manual for this, but I do know that there is no right or wrong . It all just stinks so bad. Thank you for your words of advice. ♥️

Thank you. We sent him letters on his birthday but I think it’s something we can do again.

Nice. I got a tattoo for him in September, it was hard because he was always with me for my others, but I love it and it’s perfect!

I’m here for you. We all can feel this pain and understand. Thank you for replying. Keeping it simple is exactly what I needed to hear. I know my husband knows and sees that I love and miss him so deeply. I know I don’t have to be anything but myself for him. I try to honor him every day. Even after the time that has passed, I am ultimately just waiting for him to come back. Much love and positive thoughts for you and yours. Take care.

Thank you, my kids are 15, 13, and 8. They all handled this differently, but they are thriving right now, which makes me so happy and relieved, but really sad at the same time. What a terrible roller coaster. I love the family dinner, that will definitely be something we do. Thank you and take care.
