I think that's one of the things that I miss the most. My husband and I loved to hold hands. From the walking stick, to the walker, to the wheelchair, he still would find a way to hold my hand. Even as he died.

John I know that feeling mary and I did everything together now I don't see the point in doing anything it's all just dark and lonely

We were planning an Alaskan cruise next year for our 20th anniversary. We bought matching coats and had picked out so many things. Now nothing to look forward to or plan. I dont want to go anywhere without him. Going all the places we used to go is hard enough without thinking about all the plans we had. So NOT right or fair.

George and m morgan- thank you for those beautiful poems. I especially like the message in yours m morgan. And George- Hold on to that dog and just let it happen. There's no set rules on this mourning business. You just lost your soulmate and if you don't have it in you to get up and go out somewhere or try and accomplish things- then you don't have to George. My gosh – you justblost Mary in February. And I'm right there with you. When I'm not working, most often, I'm sitting in front of the stupid TV and crying. So- in my humble opinion – we are all doing the best we can within the horrendous circumstances we have been presented with at this point in time.

Both poems touched me deeply. I know he is there and I can see things he is subtly doing. Just miss him so much my heart aches and the pain is just awful.

Why are we all in this horrible boat together???

ok i see from trying it my link dos not work.  Here is the poem with thanks to its author. 

                                      Ascension

And if I go, 
while you're still here... 
Know that I live on, 
vibrating to a different measure 
--behind a thin veil you cannot see through. 
You will not see me, 
so you must have faith. 
I wait for the time when we can soar together again, 
--both aware of each other. 
Until then, live your life to its fullest. 
And when you need me, 
Just whisper my name in your heart, 
...I will be there.

George, The poem posted on Facebook was very touching.  Here is a link to a poem my best girlfriend from high school sent me when my husband died.  I've pretty much built a shrine around a framed copy of it.  Hoping it helps you or anyone else.   It is called "Ascension".
