A Single Man: Learning to stay
http://asingleman.blogspot.com/2012/08/learning-to-stay.html
Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Tuesday, August 07, 2012. I wrote this post awhile ago and I think that this is a good time to publish it. I've been reading a book, "The Places that Scare You," by Pema Chodron. While there is a lot of good stuff in the book, the key thing I'm learning is to stay with difficult feelings and not cower from them or medicate them away. The reality is that we just don't know how things will work out.

Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Wednesday, August 01, 2012. One of my jobs. I came home last night and found the gas stove burner on. He managed to cook some eggs (even tho' I had made him some earlier.he "didn't see them"), but forgot to turn off the burner. I came home the night before and H had left the house, but left many windows open. "Well, at least I turned on the security alarm," he said. Now, this is all on top of a simpl...

A Single Man: April 2014

Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Tuesday, April 22, 2014. More of the same. Gentle readers, it has been a very long time since I've written as for the past year or so, it has been relatively quiet here…relatively. And, I haven't had much news to share…. My therapist tells me that H would be better off in an adult family home because he would have social contact, someone to help with his care, and a whole new set of people to enterta...

A Single Man: March 2012
http://asingleman.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Thursday, March 01, 2012. Detox or wires in the spine. The current scary thing is that he is topping out on how much pain medication they can give him for his neuropathy. His tolerance is high after 15 years on narcotics and in any case, you only have so many receptors that the opiates can bind to and reduce the pain. So increasing the dose won't work anymore.

Miscellaneous ramblings and rantings of a city girl. Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Welcome to Club O. My DH's father is gravely ill. He will probably pass away this week. He became suddenly ill a few weeks ago and the doctors advised today that there's nothing else they can do. I've cried a few times today not only because I really love my father-in-law but also because of what my DH is joining. Club O. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Miscellaneous ramblings and rantings of a city girl. Monday, November 14, 2011. He makes me smile. Time is flying as you can see from how long it’s been since my last post. My little guy is 16 months old now and I am completely in love with him. He has the best little personality, complete with a range of emotions from happy to sad to angry and everything in between. It never gets easier, my little friend! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). FEEDJIT Live Traffic Map. I hope you enjoy my blog.
