Mapping Grief:

January 18, 2023 by Kathie Neff Leave a Comment

A Man Called Otto. We first meet Otto six months after his wife’s death. With no apparent family, and having cut ties with those he was once close with, a grief-stricken Otto is isolated and in constant pain. He rages like a wounded bull as he goes about his daily life in the tiny neighborhood […]

Knowing Ahead

January 5, 2020 by Mike Welker Leave a Comment

The holiday season is over.  Starting in early November, every year, I begin pondering Megan’s death at an elevated rate, leading up to the anniversary of it.  With Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day all occurring in the weeks just after, it’s two months of absolute stress, that nobody seems to understand, including myself.  My…

Wonderful Life

November 25, 2019 by Staci Sulin Leave a Comment

I often think about life with Mike.  I want the life and love he shared with me back.  A part of me will always want to slip back into that wonderful life with him.  I know that this is not possible, but I do not know how to stop myself from wishing for my old life to return to me.  I know that none of these desires are realistic.  And, I…

Second Season of Spirits

November 2, 2019 by Bryan Martin Leave a Comment

Holidays are hard for me now since Tin and my father are gone. They passed away 10 months apart and it is very clear that so much has gone on that I can’t process some situations better than I thought I would. Round 2 of the holidays coming and I’m worse than last year. I guess it makes sense. That whole first year is a blur trying to manage…

Traveler’s Remorse

October 26, 2019 by Bryan Martin Leave a Comment

Two weeks traveling abroad in the Brazilian Amazon! How amazing! So exciting! I have never traveled out of the country besides Cancun, Mexico so this was a huge step outside my comfort zone. I haven’t had an actual vacation since Tin passed so this would be a break for me to soak up the experience and take the much earned downtime to recharge.I…

Diagnoses Date

October 5, 2019 by Bryan Martin 1 Comment

We all know the dreaded dates. The anniversary of their death, birthdays, togetherness anniversaries, holidays but there’s one more on my list that adds another dark mark on my year – His diagnosis date.Tin just felt off like he had the flu or something. No strange symptoms. No sudden pains. Just an off feeling. He did complain that he felt…

Ostracized Honesty

September 21, 2019 by Bryan Martin Leave a Comment

It’s time I dive into a topic that is always at the heart of gay men dating – HIV/AIDS. Growing up I watched as the disease came forth, took lives and drove the world to treat the LGBTQ+ community worse than ever. There was fear of being accused and harmed and there was (and still is) fear of contracting the disease. From my biology background,…

Some Thing Old, Something New, Something Borrowed and I’m Blue

August 10, 2019 by Bryan Martin Leave a Comment

Last weekend I was at a close friends wedding. I loved the people, the venue and the time away from my regular hectic schedule. On a beautiful hill at a colonial inn in rural New Hampshire, we all gathered under three towering maple trees to watch two friends join together.  I was in the wedding party. We had rehearsed the walk through the…

Thoughts About the Dead

July 4, 2019 by Bobby Atwal Leave a Comment

I miss the weight of her body on top of me falling asleep.   I miss how white her teeth were and how her tying bells aroourful skirts from Rajastan.    I miss watching her tying bells around her ankles and practicing classical Indian dance.   I miss hearing her opinions on politics, race, climate change, gender and the cosmos.   I even miss…

Random Widower Thoughts

June 13, 2019 by Bobby Atwal Leave a Comment

Sometimes, okay, let’s be honest, more often than sometimes, it feels like the best part of my life is over.  She is gone.  She is gone. And, she is gone.  However, at the same time It feels like this is the best part of my life because I get to raise a fantastic daughter.  Even though I know that it would be so, so much better if Natasha…

Death Sucks

June 4, 2019 by Mike Welker Leave a Comment

Does anyone else feel like they pay less attention to deaths these days?  Hear me out. I’ve noticed this trend, at least in me, of learning of a person that might have been significant to me has died.  I note it, give it a quick “that sucks, for their widow”, and go about my business. Tim Conway (a comedian I grew up admiring), Bart Starr…

Space

May 31, 2019 by Bobby Atwal Leave a Comment

  Whenever my daughtyer and I sleep next to each other there is a space  beside us. When I am getting Anisha ready for school there is a space next to us. When we sleep next to each other, there is a space next to us. When we have breakfast, lunch and dinner, there is a space next to us. When we walk to a playground, there is a space next to us.
