Too Little and Too Much

by Cassie Dockter-Reeves in Grief, Hope for Widows Foundation, Mental Health, Solo Parenting, Widowhood Journey

When I’ve gone to write posts for this blog, the words just fell out of me. But not this time. This time it doesn’t feel like I have any words to give. Sometimes it feels like this is all I ...

Preparing our older children for the game of life

by Cindy Schriver in Grief, Mental Health, Solo Parenting, Widowhood Journey
September 27, 2024
  As mothers, we spent much of the first years of our children's life trying to protect them. From holding hands, to forcing sunscreen on wiggly toddlers, to buckling them in the car safely, to kissing scraped knees. It can ...

Halted Healing

by Sonney Wolfe in Grief, Health and Wellness, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Mental Health, Widowhood Journey
September 21, 2024September 21, 2024
I still feel married. The dichotomy of this phrase is largely dismissed by widows. Conversely, we pass it around like bread at the dinner table, slathering it with butter and comforting our palates with the way it rolls off our ...

The Pilgrimage of Faith Through Grief

by Sonney Wolfe in Coping Mechanisms, Grief, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Widowhood Journey
September 7, 2024
I have believed in God for as long as I can remember. My mother and the church indoctrinated me with visions of the cross, and on Sundays, I trailed behind her with hurried steps while she marched us towards service ...

Learning to accept help

by Cindy Schriver in Hope and Healing, Widowhood Journey
September 6, 2024
Learning to let people help you can be very hard. I have often had to bury my ego and seek help from my Mom or sometimes, in extreme cases, church. I enjoy being the giver much more than receiving.    ...

Uncomfortable Grief

by Diana Henderson in Grief, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Widowhood Journey
September 1, 2024September 7, 2024
Grief is something that widows live with and it is also what makes everyone around us uncomfortable. The reality of grief is that it’s permanent; it’s not something we get over or outgrow. Grief exists near the surface of life ...

Permission to Feel Happiness

by Sonney Wolfe in Grief, Health and Wellness, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Mental Health, Widowhood Journey
August 23, 2024August 24, 2024
Allowing myself to be happy, after the death of my husband, always felt a little like betrayal. It felt like I was shouting from the highest peaks that life without him was enjoyable, like I didn’t care that he had ...

When to Get Help

by Sonney Wolfe in Coping Mechanisms, Grief, Health and Wellness, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Mental Health
August 2, 2024
My first grief therapy experience was a disaster – a Freudian approach connecting everything back to sex and my parents that left me feeling more broken and bewildered than when I began. The counseling was shoved in my face about ...

On Life, Love, and Healing

by Carmen Medina in Coping Mechanisms, Grief, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Widowhood Journey
July 15, 2024July 17, 2024
I’m new to this, yet I’m not. I’m a teacher so I’m used to writing. I’ve been writing most of my life. I mostly write and then eventually throw my writing away, except the journals on my travels. I also ...

3AM Support

by Sonney Wolfe in Coping Mechanisms, Grief, Health and Wellness, Hope and Healing, Hope for Widows Foundation, Widowhood Journey
July 1, 2024July 3, 2024
June, 2024 - 3:46am Why didn’t I say thank you? I roll over and look at my phone. The room is dark and silent, and I’ve got one leg hooked over a pile of clean laundry that’s needed folding for ...
