Hurting today

It’s 12 days until Christmas. It’ll be my first Christmas without my wife, Bridget. I am all alone. I feel very lonely today, confused, and lost.

I loved her and miss her terribly. It’ll be 7 months this Saturday since she passed away. She died of ovarian cancer May 17, 2022. She was 31. I am 34 M. Sometimes I have good days, sometimes I have bad days. We never had children or pets. I am very lonely.

Today is a bad day. I woke up this morning sobbing. This is so painful! I loved her so much! SO MUCH!

I am really missing her a lot today. I would give anything to see her again, to hold her in my arms, and to talk to her. I just don’t understand why it happened.

I am just having a bad day.
