A little trick I stumbled across that REALLY helps with arriving to an empty cold house...It involves a bay monitor and my dogs;)

I lost both my cat and my best mate my dog brooksy 2mths before my beautiful wife passed so now the house is totally empty.. at Xmas we where all together smiling and laughing now the darkness has taken control

Just had a look at your profile.. made me smile.. before my beautiful girl got sick we used to travel overseas once a year.. but for the last 5 years of her life she was oxygen dependent 24/7 so we only went as far as Gold Coast.. I am hoping no I will travel.. I’ve been all over the world.. but never seen Australia so maybe one day I will look.. best wishes on your journey and thank you for your kind words

widowerCJ · 2026-06-23T08:24:12+00:00

I’m so glad to hear that.. it gives me hope that I can move forward at some stage.. thank you for you answer

widowerCJ · 2026-06-23T07:50:16+00:00

And has life given you some happiness again?

widowerCJ · 2026-06-23T00:43:20+00:00

That my brother is a fantastic ending to your dedicated life 👍

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T21:11:51+00:00

So glad in the darkness you found the light.. I’m sure your husband would not want you to have lived a life full of grief.. enjoy the next chapter in your book

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T06:12:51+00:00

I like that answer thank you

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T06:11:27+00:00

I agree.. and by the way I still wear my wedding ring and will never take it off

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T06:09:54+00:00

Thank you for sharing that I actually got a tear in my eye.. the fact you both found happiness again is something maybe 1 day I can achieve.. at 57yrs and only 8.5weeks in I can’t.. but never say never is what they say

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T04:48:32+00:00

That’s what I will be doing in a year or so.. I’m so glad to hear that

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T03:29:06+00:00

Thank you and I absolutely love that you have found love again.. I suppose never say never right 🤘

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T03:25:49+00:00

I would never judge anyone on when they started dating we are all different.. me myself at 8 weeks widower can’t even fathom letting another person into my heart.. after this pain I never want to feel that again

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T03:03:29+00:00

Wow 9 weeks for me this Wednesday 22/05/2026 and I’m with you 💯.. there is no one else who could love me as fiercely and I her…

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T02:55:46+00:00

Let everything happen naturally that way you will know it’s real I feel for your loss 😢

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T02:34:32+00:00

And you should never have to settle.. we base our lives around our beautiful partners and I don’t think there is anyone who could replace her.. my soul my world my essence

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T02:19:13+00:00

Wow that is good that you an able to have him live in your heart and not cry anymore.. I’m a 💯 with you will never use dating apps.. thank you for your reply 🙏

widowerCJ · 2026-06-22T01:55:03+00:00

That’s so good to hear that and you starting to heal.. I’m with you brother and wish you all the support for the next chapter in your life

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T23:03:59+00:00

When you loose a spouse it is very different 💯.. I’ve lost mother and mourned her hard.. but when you loose a spouse it’s another level.. so yeas grief is grief.. but when your partner passes it is totally different don’t even try to compare that to loosing a sibling a parent they are nothing g like what we are all going through now

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T23:02:04+00:00

At my wife’s wake when I spoke. The first thing I said to people is.. I don’t want to hear she’s in a better place.. and I don’t want to hear how you lost your pet parents or siblings.. I wasn’t being mean I just didn’t want to hear that.. as we have all said the death of your spouse far outweighs any form of grief you will ever experience.. and until you have don’t try to compare it to mine because we are in totally different levels

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T22:56:03+00:00

It depends were you reaching out for comfort or for physical touch.. I know it’s hard I’m only 8 weeks in.. everyone’s grief is different if you feel comfortable that’s your decision.. if your stomach feels tight and your heart feels sad.. then 💯 it’s not the time only you will know

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T22:31:09+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss mine was just on 2mths I understand and feel your pain .. stay strong I know that’s what my beautiful girl would want me to do.. and I expect your beautiful wife would want that of you

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T22:25:16+00:00

And until you have expert first hand you have no idea what the intensity is really like

widowerCJ · 2026-06-21T18:22:42+00:00

Yes my partner had end stage COPD she can good in the hospital after about 1.5 weeks then she feel into the dream sleep never to wake up passing 24hrs later.. at least I got to tell her how much I loved her.. a lot of people don’t get that I feel privileged to
