Hi Vince, sorry you are having such a rough day .. believe me I have had a lot of those.  I know it was hard to go back to work but I am glad you are trying to do keep doing what you need to do.   Plant that bush that bought and as you see it grow you can think of your wife not suffering but free to watch over you always.  

I know for me going to training last week for two days was really hard.  But I also know that I have to start going out of the house and interacting with people.  I have tried to go to church a few times since my husband's passing, and my church family is awesome, but its hard being there without him.  All I seem to do is cry the whole service.  So once again today I have procrastinated until its too late to go.

 Hope the rest of the day gets easier for you.

today it sucks being me.I have so many things in my mind to say but I can't express them don't know who to express them to.Going on my 3rd week without my wife and the sadness just keeps on piling on.I've been trying to make so projects to stay active and have been back to work.The problem with working is it seems like the whole day I feel up with saddness and when I finally convince myself to go home,the saddness comes out in torrents of tears.I bought a bush yesterday and hope to plant it today.I folded a couple of her shirts to put a way.definately not ready for that yet.Starting to take over keeping our fiancial records now,Having to her death to all these agencies is a real low point.It almost seems that she was never here except in my memories and the more special the memory the deeper the hurt.I'm trying to make some changes in my life but its a slow process for me.For now its just me and my birds,don't know how long that will last before I loose my mind.My loss is like a deep wound,hopefully one day it will heal but it will leave one massive scar.Gonna try to plant that bush. god bless

Kim, I am sorry for your loss.  I am still trying struggling to understand the big 'Why'.  Why does this disease strike so many?  Why my husband and not me?

I believe today that when a loved one dies,in order to get bye you must die (change) also.In my case the person who always asks "can I pick you up something on the way home" "good morning sweetheart" "Its an I love you gift babe"has to change.For he has truely died with his wife.I think I must become a new different person,a new identity.hope Mary Morrison is doing well I have missed her writings in the last couple of days She has inspired me to move foward threw the pain and hurt god bless

It is the worst thing that can happen. Yes, this is a new journey for all of us.

It is the worst thing that can happen, at this point, after nearly 1 year, I feel it must be worse than having it happen to myself.  I wish it had been me because its harder to carry on without them.  Everyone tells you it gets better but only a little and not for a long time; don't ever expect to get over it, just try your best to get through it.  It is a new journey into yourself and we are all here by your side if you need to vent, cry, laugh.  Luv, Maura

Kim Im really sorry for your loss.  It really sucks when cancer steals another beautiful person from this earth.  I had another family member, my sisters granddaughter, diagnosed with advanced breast cancer a few weeks ago.  She is only 34 years old. We are just praying her journey is easy and successful, but fearing the worst.  Know you are in my thoughts.
