My Husband Died and All I Got Was This Lousy Book

April 6, 2018 by Kelley Lynn Leave a Comment

In July of 2011, my husband died, and I died too. Well, that version of me died. About an hour after his death, after I had made the phone calls to immediate family and a few close friends – from a random bathroom inside the ER part of the hospital, sitting on the toilet after having just thrown up from shock – I sent my first Facebook status…

The Dance of Anger

February 9, 2015 by Tricia Bratton Leave a Comment

This weekend, my widowed sisters (and brothers) have been basking in sun and friendship in my old stomping grounds, Tampa, Florida, at a Camp Widow weekend, sponsored by Soaring Spirits Foundation, and organised by Michele Neff Hernandez, the founder of this blog, and of Soaring Spirits. I have thought about them during this weekend, and wished to…

Not this…But, oh yes, This

February 4, 2015 by Alison Miller Leave a Comment

Grief illiteracy has been on my mind quite a bit in the last couple weeks.   Even if you don’t know that term, you’ll know what I mean when I tell you about my face-to-face with it.  And you’ll nod your head and say to yourself (or to the room in general)….oh, yes….I keep a personal blog in addition to writing for Widows Voice, and I have for…

Journaling through the Emotions

January 26, 2014 by Sarah Treanor and Mike Welker Leave a Comment

I’ve been going back over a lot of my old journal entries lately and picked one out to share a part of. For some years now I have been doing this inner-child dialogue technique… Basically having a conversation with that deepest, most vulnerable (and sometimes most wounded) part of myself by asking her questions and allowing her to share until I…

They Were There

September 30, 2013 by Cassie Deitz Leave a Comment

“Why don’t you reread your Widow’s Voice posts from the beginning and see what kind of progress you’ve made.” My smart smart dude’s advice the other day when I talked to him about the possibility of identifying so much with widowhood that it was keeping me stuck in some ways. So I tried it. I didn’t expect to discover what I did. The overall…

Letter

September 9, 2013 by Cassie Deitz Leave a Comment

I was looking through my miscellaneous writing pieces and found this letter I wrote myself during my writing workshop circle many months ago. The prompt we’d be given was to imagine you’re yourself from the future writing to the present you. I think I may have posted this before, but once is not enough for this one. I wish my internal voice always…
