Lou, airing your problems to us is the best anti-depression medicine you can take. I can't say I know how you feel because I'm not in your shoes even though we do share a hardship, the loss of a child. It suddenly puts you into a different league emotionally.
Marilyn and I lost our 27 year old daughter, and you already know it's the toughest thing a person can ever go through. She went to heaven 8 years ago and in retrospect, the first three years really drug us down, but after that we could start to look at life as being good again though there will always be that feeling of terrible loss in the recesses of our minds. I compare it to a very severe physical injury. We heal and are able to walk again but there will always be a limp. Talking about my problems to friends gradually got me back up and running again. It made some of them squirm sometimes, but they hung in there with me and I will never forget them. Don't give up, and don't feel like you're weak for being depressed. We humans have emotions and we don't need to try to hide them. Try to be patient, if you can. Time does fade some of the bad memories even though right now you don't feel it will.
I do wish you well with your health problems. I'm 15 years your junior and in pretty good health, but I am beginning to realize why some older folks say getting old is not for the timid. God bless. Jim

The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
