Personal Experiences – Mike from New York

Michael, 71, lives in New York.  Mike lost his wife after an 11-year battle with breast cancer.  He found solace through attending meetings for widows and became friendly with the people there – including a widow named Joan.  Their friendship gradually turned into something more, and now Mike is proud to say that they have been married for awhile.  He explains how Chapter 3 is not about forgetting your loved one; it is about reaching out to others and learning to live again.
