 |  MIA ...checking in
Hi everyone. Sorry I have been MIA again. Things just do not seem to let up. My health has been good. Weight at 156 I would like to be right at 150 so I am doing the pouch reset starting Monday. I have had a major living change, my husband and best friend past away the day after Thanksgiving. We had actually moved down to Tucson, Az to be closer to my grandma who has lung cancer, and the weather was goo for my husband back and pain problems. I went down the first part of October and he joined us on the 21 of October. The day after he died I came back home to Iowa, and I am now living with his mom and Riley my son. I feel just so lost, now. Ron and I have only spent just a short time apart in the 10 years we were together, so I really lost. I am having ahard time with the fact that he was laying right next to me, he did not moved, shake or even wake, just went to sleep, his report says it was a heartattack. I have been trying to find a support group, but I am finding out that most of the groups have people much older then me. My son is doing well, he I think is trying to be strong for me, and I think I might reley on him for comfort, but he is so much like his daddy. He is seeing a therapist at his school and she is wonderful. I like being here with his mom and her house, cause it seems I am closer to him this way, but then I feel like I am waiting for him to be here, and I almost get mad, cause the waiting. He was my everything, I do not like feeling alone, and I have people just not him. I tried going out with friends last weekend to get out of the house and just did not feel safe, even though I was. with in Rons arms I could do anything and feel safe, I could wear anything and be safe, now I do not feel that way. I keep praying for a little more understand of the why questions I have, which I might not ever know. Sorry to just pop in and have bad news, but I know everyone here is so helpful and supportive. my myspace got wiped for some reason so if you have a mypsace, and would like to add everyone back on that I had my screen name is mawelling.  |

I am so so sorry about your husband. My prayers are with you as you go through this difficult time. and NEVER feel you have to apologize for coming in with sad news. You need the support and this was a place you felt you could come. I'm glad you have family and friends you can lean on, even though it doesn't feel "right" right now. I pray you find peace and happiness again some day. (((HUGE HUGS))) Although you don't know me... I am sending virtual hugs your way.

I am soooooo sorry to hear of your loss. I can't imagine, but I know that God is the only thing that can get you through. He promises to give us the strength we need in the troublesome times. Lean on Him. And no need to apologize for "popping in". That's what we are here for, any kind of support you need.
I am sending prayers and hugs your way for both you and your son! May God bless you and be everything you need during this difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear about your great loss. I do understand. I came home and found my husband in his recliner. He had a massive heart attack. It was such a shock. My world turned upside down. I felt so guilty because I was not there. They told me it would not have mattered it was fast. My heart goes out to you .. It doesnt seem like it now but things will get better. You will never forget but the pain of the loss will ease up in time. God is always there to listen to you when you feel so lost. You have all our prayers here also. This is a great bunch of people so much love and support not just for weight loss but in lifes ups and downs also. God bless you and your son. Just take it one day at a time and remember the good times. ((((hugs))))) dixie
