Ginny: I sent you an email just a few minutes ago so hopefully you’ll read it and then understand why when I read your blog, it just plain made me want to weep the snotty-ugly-cry. But I didn’t. So perhaps that’s progress. (When you read my e-mail, you’ll get what I’m talking about.) Thanks for writing this.

Unfortunately I did the opposite. I started eating more after my husband died. I ate all the wrong foods, and what ever I wanted , when ever I wanted. I guess my thinking was- comfort food, but the more I ate the more I wanted with no one there to stop me from eating. It’s been almost 5 years, and while I had slowed down the past couple years, I still wasn’t eating right while alone and was diagnosed with diabetes this past week. Thank God not to the point of needing medication yet. I am trying now to eat what I should and walk more. A couple times a week is turning into daily some type of walk or exercise. Grief and loneliness can destroy those left behind.
