Hello friends. it has been a long time since I posted...been trying to "get on with life" but it is so hard.
I have had several lovely holidays with another lady who sadly lost her husband to Dementia. We get on really well and feel so lucky we have each other, but there is this big hole in my life and I cant get beyond this lost sad feeling.
I think because I "appear" to be getting on with life, i.e. holidays, coffee mornings, shopping trips etc. everyone seems to accept that I have moved on. and to be honest if you measure my life by ability to be able to do these things, I accept I am lucky, but I still shed tears after tears on my own and miss Trevor so much.
I have written a little story of my life with Trevor and his dementia which helped me get my thoughts down on paper and to be honest I just cant believe how much we went through together and I probably shouldnt expect to come out the other end the same person
I could write forever but you all have the same unhappiness to deal with but I thank you for listening.
love
Bronwen
