Are there any other widows out there? How are you dealing with the joys and pains of doing this again? I'd love to find another survivor starting over again!

Hi August Bride - I'm a widow too. My first husband died of cancer 7 years ago (this Friday actually). My son, Danny, was only 4 at the time.

I'm really lucky that everyone has been so supportive of my new relationship. Danny gets on brilliantly with my h2b, calls him Dad, and eventually he'll adopt him. We now have a 2 year old and Danny is thrilled to be part of a "normal" family again - mum, dad, little brother. In the past he felt a bit lost - even his friends whose parents had divorced still had a dad.

At the time everything happened I didn't think I'd ever be happy again. I thought my life was over. I met h2b 3 years later. Now I feel I've been given a second chance at life - and I've grabbed it with both hands. Do you feel like this too?

How long have you been widowed? Did you have children with your first husband? It'd be interesting to hear how you're doing.

Wow! This sure is a friendly group--and I was worried that since most of you are British that I would feel left out! Not anymore! Thanks for the big hellos.
