This is for anyone who has lost somone to cancer. I lost my adopted Mom to breast cancer some years ago. She was everything I could have asked for. She loved me because I was just me. She also loved my family and children as if they were her own.

Hello everyone, Hope life is getting easier for each of you as the days slowly pass on. Lost my husband a little more than 19 months ago, April 29 2014. He had five different Cancers in his body and it is a difficult situation with this much, pain, confusion, memory loss and unable to feed them. You see the daily changes in the ones you love and watch them change into almost a vegetable slowly. A son and I took care of him at home, but he was under Hospice of the Valley. After watching the different cancer areas take over the body for 12years, you are kind of ready for God to take them home away from the pain, medicines, confusion and hunger. They cannot eat and very little liquids at a time soon causes the body to die. He passed here at home at 4:15 AM. He is missed by all and we have the theory that we will all reunite one glad day and never have to say good by any more. May each of you receive Blessings and Peace as the day go by
and remember your loved ones are at peace and comfort now. God Bless you all.
I lost my husband to cancer in March and it was hard.I was there when he passed away and his last words were I love you to me.It was one day at time so far and starting to move on.I keep a Busch Beer bottle cap near the shifter of my 2015 Dodge Challenger in memory of him.He loved Busch beer.
I am just past the 10 month mark of losing my husband to Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer. He was diagnosed in January of 2014, and died 6 hours before his 59th birthday on Dec. 28th of 2014. I have lost a lot of people in my family over the last 8 years, and by far this is the hardest thing I've ever had to endure. Sometimes I wish that I could go and be with him. When people talk about theories about when the world might end, I think...yes, that would take care of it. I could be with him again. But, I have a 30 year old son that has some mental health problems, and I know he needs me. He has ultimately been a great deal of support to me I know it's wrong to want to simply feel like you would like to die....my therapist always asks me if I am suicidal. Not exactly. It's just that every single moment of every day this loss has been a part of me. It's always there, and if it seems like now and then I feel happier for a little while, as soon as I am alone it's as though I've been physically punched in the stomach, the grief is so strong. Most people think I am doing well, moving on with life, but every day since the day my husband was diagnosed has been incredibly painful. 22+ long months of grieving with no feeling that anything is going to get better. Unfortunately I suffered from clinical depression and anxiety before any of this started, and had just gotten to what was almost two years since I lost my Mom. At the time I couldn't imagine any greater pain. Another Saturday night alone...
1 year ago today I lost my husband, Bill, to Stage IV lung cancer. In all the deaths that I've had in the family, none came close to the gaping hole and total feeling of being off-balanced when he died.
I just spent the past several hours watching a video of our wedding. I started out with tears and ended up with smiles. I watched the love we shared in his eyes and started remembering better times. I will always miss him, but, I know we had the real thing...and I'm hoping that time really does heal wounds.
Wishing all happier memories!
Hello to all...Hoping your days are getting a bit easier to contend with. We all move forward a little each day that passes. The loss and grief remains with us but as time moves slowly forward, we rely on our memories. Our loved ones have found Peace and one glad day we will all be re-united with them. I look forward to seeing my family members and dear friends. Thinking good thoughts today for all who post here. Blessings for you.
Hello to all , Have been posting here at different intervals, as I lost my hubby on April 29 2014. Has been almost 18 months now. He had five different areas of his body riddled with Cancer. The grief feelings still linger but it does get easier as time moves forward. With the pain, medicines, confusions, dementia issues, it was a Blessing to me that GOD took him home. Know he is a better place and free from all issues while here on Earth. He is missed by all who was around him and everyone remembers him with care and love. Want to say I relate to your feelings and I found some peace by attending Hospice of the Valley Grief Support Group meetings. This might not help everyone, but if you care to try, it might be of support for you . GOD be with each of you and may your days be filled with wonderful memories of your loved ones who have had to leave you behind. Prayers for each and all.
My beautiful Mom died Friday 10/16/15 at 6pm of lung cancer. God also called my Dad home 10/17/2008, he died of prostate cancer. Today is a hard day because I am going to her apt. to clean it out and let hospice get their equipment. I am not sure what to say just yet. I miss my Mom. She will be laid out this Wed. and buried this Thursday. I am sure I will have lots to say later. Please pray we can get through this without losing it. Thank you.
