In Reply to: widowed at age 35 posted by Lori on July 14, 2001 at 01:58:56:
I was widowed at the age of 32, my husband was 31. I've been a widow now for 3 years. My husband and I had been together for 10 years. we had one child (a daughter) who was 8 years old at the time of her father's death. It has been a long journey for both my daughter and myself, holidays are especially tough, but as time goes on it does seem to get easier. I've gotten through the worst part, but I guess one of my biggest obstacles now is trying to figure out how to start over at 35. If anyone has any helpful suggestions, I would love to hear from you.
