Profile Information

About Me:
Recently widowed mother of four plus two step-kids. Struggling to put the pieces of my life and my children's lives while coping with the loss of my soul mate.
About my Loss:
My sweetheart and I had been married 9 1/2 years. Since May of 2003 we have dealt with many illnesses from sudden onset of heart failure from a viral infection. He received a heart transplant at Ochsner Clinic Foundation in New Orleans
on Feb. 8, 2005. He fought to survive and lost both of his parents, his father passed away in March 2005, and his mother passed away from cancer in 2008. He was an amazing person, and an amazing father and husband. I am lost without him, and all my will to fight was lost when I lost him- to sudden cardiac arrest, on Dec. 6, 2009.

Vicki I am here for you. It is terrible to lose our loved ones. I am still in shock not knowing what to do with myself. My husband Vern and I have been dealing with his illness for 6 years. now there is just emptiness. I am mad about how we were treated at the transplant center, we had such incompetent uncaring transplant coordinators and support staff. Vern had his first transplant in 2007 at a differnt transplant center and because our insurance changed we needed to go elsewhere for medical care. vern died during his surgery and we were given more support from the first transplant center than the one where he died. I am angery that Vern was insignificant to them.

"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
