A Young Widow's Twenty-Year Journey: Navigating the New Normal

By Carol Goldblum Nathenson

Chronicling my journey as a young widow has been an emotional and cathartic experience. It was my goal to write a memoir of my experiences that would provide hope for others in a similar situation. I described how fortunate my daughters and I were to be surrounded by so many friends and family. We experienced the true meaning of the phrase "It takes a village." It was excruciatingly difficult to lose my husband at a young age, but throughout the years, the pain and loss became manageable. Meeting a new partner and ultimately remarrying was wonderful but presented its own set of challenges in blending families. It was difficult to handle and cope with these events at the time; but thankfully, with a lot of perseverance and love, we overcame these challenges. Nothing in life is easy, but remaining steadfast and committed to making relationships work proved to be successful for us. We weathered a lot of storms and bumps in the road and are thankful to be able to enjoy our growing family.
