      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Deborah, I’m really glad you found this space. It can feel so isolating at first, but being around people who &lt;EM&gt;get it&lt;/EM&gt; really helps. Take your time and don’t rush the healing - some days will feel heavier than others, and that’s okay.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I lost my husband, Mel, in November 2021.&amp;nbsp; It's a lonely life. My heart goes out to you. Just know, you are not alone!&amp;nbsp; I'm beginning to believe it's a journey that doesn't end; maybe it softens.&amp;nbsp; I'm just so sorry you are on this journey with so many of us.&amp;nbsp; Susan&lt;/P&gt;</description>
