Dear Morgan,
Thank you so much for your kind words. Losing Babie J was the last thing I had to love and she saved my life when Julian died. She was a 9 year rescue and it was pure unconditional love when our eyes met.
Now that I have no one in my life. I will do every thing in power to end my life.
Linda,
I missed your post on Babie J. Oh my, I am so sorry. The sweetest unconditional love that a pet gives us is a gift that we never forget. I lost our kitty cat a year and half after my husband died and it was grueling. I can still see myself in the vets office.
I can only support Joe and his suggestion about catching the right bus. None of us want to be here. It certainly doesn't seem to be getting any better in the way we view living. But what if? What if the connection needs to be made in the way the universe dictates it? It's about the only thing that keeps me from taking the quickest exit.
The pain we all endure we try to support each other in getting through another day, another month, another year. It has been so hard to do this. But maybe its true. Maybe Juian and Babie J are just waiting together at the right bus stop. The one we are supposed to get off at.
I care Linda. I care that you are hurting. If there was anything else I could say that would take that hurt away I would be saying it. Just know I want you to be able to reunite with the both of them at the right stop. All of us care.....

Linda, my heart aches for you. I am so sorry for your loss. We can never be prepared for the loss of a loved one!
Thanks Joe, I am beyond words,
I am so sorry for your loss of Babie Linda. I know how broken you are now but don't forget about catching that right bus.
Babie is with Julian right now at the right bus stop waiting for you.
Joe
Linda,
I agree; I died when my husband died as well, in every important way. But I know that when my body dies, whenever that may be and whatever from, my family will be sad.
As far as I'm concerned, there is no such thing as a "new normal" at all -- that asinine phrase needs to be jettisoned from the English language, in my opinion, at least when it comes to the death of one's soulmate/spouse/partner. Whatever life the surviving spouse is forced to live is abnormal, there is no longer any such thing as normal (at least for me, and so many of us here).
Hi Trina and Bluebird,
Nice to see you both online. For me personally the virus doesn't bother me. I already died the day my Husband, Julian died. There is no such thing as a new normal for me. Take Care.
Bluebird,
Good to hear from you. Yes, I know exactly what you mean, the need to want to isolate yourself alone at home after your husband's death. For so many of us, that seems the only refuge after our irreparable loss.
I hope you can see your mother soon and visit your sister and brother-in-law for dinner again. Unfortunately, with a sinking heart, it seems to me, too, that life will no longer ever be the same on this planet even after Coronavirus passes, because there will always be the threat that it could strike again. Take care. Sending good thoughts your way.
