- About Me:
- I am 58yrs old and have 3 adults sons. We are currently staying with our youngest son and his wife since last year because of my Husband's illnesses. We were planning on going back to Nevada the first week of Oct. 2016. Just trying to figure out my life alone now.
- About my Loss:
- My Husband was my world. Last year he had a minor stroke and some other issues. March of this year Frank was diagnosed with Lung Cancer and finished his first round of treatments 8/26/16. I took him in to his Oncologist in Sept.14 and asked her to listen to his chest because our kids had been sick. She heard crackling in the lungs but refused to put him on anything until the 28th. He went to the hospital 10/03 and was discharged 10/18 after being on the Ventilator in ICU the whole time because of severe pneumonia. The surgeon before said he had 5yrs because of the cancer. The Drs. in the hospital said he should have been treated sooner and wasn't. He came home on oxygen and other things because the hospital had said there was nothing else that they could do for him. He was getting worse. Hospice was called in on 11/03/16 and by Sunday, Nov 6th my Husband was gone. We were looking ahead for the next five years and had so many plans. He was taken early because someone refused putting him on antibiotics or getting a CT sooner. I am lost without Frank. I cry everyday and my heart is broken. We were married almost 18 years and he was the love of my life. Its been 3 weeks today since my Frank left me. I am just empty. Not looking forward to Christmas as all or any other holidays for awhile. I understand with everyone on here how the loss of your spouse hurts so much. I know we all have to grieve, it just hurts so much. My thoughts are with everyone who has lost someone in their lives.

"is griefshare a website like this?"
"Kali
I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
