- About Me:
- 55 yr old F, met my husband several years after a horrible divorce. Felt so blessed to have given a second chance at love. I am a teacher. we have 3 grown children, & 3 grandchildren. I thought I would grow old with my husband.
- About my Loss:
- My husband had a massive heart attack & was gone with in a few hours. No history of heart problems, no symptoms, no warning. He was fine all day, watching football & we cooked out. went to bed that nt, told each other we loved each other. woke at 1:15 he was tossing & turning, asked him if he was ok, he said he was burning up. reached over to touch him, his T shirt was soaked with sweat. I asked if he was in pain, he wouldn't answer me, so i turned on light, went to his side of bed, his eyes were rolled back in his head, kept calling his name, he grabbed my hand & kept squeezing it, like he could hear me but couldn't answer. I called 911 got the para medics on the way. All of a sudden he coughed & came out of it, he only remembered being hot.Told him I had called 911 & they were on the way.He wanted to get up & put some pants on so he went to the bathroom & slipped pajama bottoms on , walked into living room the whole time talking top me, paramedics came ,talked to my husband, hooked him to EKG. said his heart was out of rythm, they needed to take him to ER so they carried him out I threw on clothes,followed them to hospital. when I got there they were wheeling him in the door ,I ran over to be with him & they wouldn't let me see him, told me I had to sit in waiting room untill they came to get me. 25 minutes latter they came & told me he had arrested in the ambulance & they had to shock him back.and since he had been at the hospital he had stopped breathing on his own & they had put a tube in his throat and they were working on getting him to breathe on his own & they would come get me in a few minutes to see him. 10 minutes latter they came back & said he was gone. I never got to say good bye or I love you again. I am devastated & in shock & angry that the hospital did not let me see him.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?
Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
"Hi Rosa,
First, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Losing someone you love only two days ago is incredibly painful, and it’s understandable that you’re feeling unsure about what to do right now.
Personally, I don’t…"
