YES 'I felt lost without it' Judy Broadbent, 66, is a writer living in Yorkshire.
My wedding ring was a permanent fixture on my hand for 24 years. I only ever removed it during childbirth and even then, it was hung on a chain around my neck.
When my husband and I eventually separated, the divorce was pretty acrimonious, but we remained friends for the sake of our four children. Somehow, I couldn't bear to take my gold band off; it was symbolic and I knew I wouldn't feel good without it.
At 49, I didn't want another man in my life, and I had always admired and loved the feel of it on my finger.
