“All people are left bereft when their partner dies, and it can be difficult for even the strongest individuals to cope with the loss.”
Established in January 2009, Widow.ie is an Irish online information and self-help resource for, and by widows, widowers and bereaved life partners. By utilising the forum, members can get to know others in similar situations throughout the island of Ireland and further afield. Some members are recently bereaved and for others its a number of years, all ages are welcome to join in conversation.
Topics covered include all aspects of bereavement and recovery, life without our loved one, rearing of children and life as an older widow or widower, to name but a few.
We talk about the lighter side of life too by sharing the good days along with the bad, here is where others understand…
