Struggles/challenges: Some days are better than others. I don’t share these for pity. I am sharing because I want to be honest and open about this grief journey.

1. Finding the confidence that I once had

2. Being the sole decision maker

3. Having a confidant to share the good, the funny, the bad, etc. with

4. Caring enough to eat well, drink my water, exercise, sleep, take care of myself

5. Feeling lonely in a world full of people

6. Finding the motivation to move forward

7. Not sleeping well and being tired

8. Being more forgetful than before

9. Not having my person to drink coffee with or eat dinner with

10. Not having my person to make future plans with
