Hi I totally feel your pain, although I was not married to my man, my best friend - we had been together for 9 years (first 3 as friends then as a couple the last 6) he was a wonderful man and it has just demollished my world...he passes away in Feb 2011, his birthday is coming up Aug. 14 and I am so lost. He died in the hospital within a 2 week period, I was with him at the time. This is so unfair! I was to be moving in with him in his house we were redecorating in March...we have been planning this for 3 years and the time had come to make the move. Now I have no plans for my life...i am so lost. My kids too are grown and have their own kids and life..they do call but they just tell me I need to go get medicine for depression. I do not want to do that! so I try to act like I am ok when talking to them for the most part ....I am so alone, it is as if no one wants to talk about him as if it is tabo - he is gone and that is life, we must move on (I am so sick of hearing that)....how do you move on with your dreams smashed and ripped out from underneith you? My best friend is gone! I am trying to just take it one day at a time...I work, go home and go for walks...I talk to him often...I don't want to let him go...I am so sorry you have to feel this pain too...I wish it on no one, ever! Hang in there we will make it just not sure how yet.
big hug!!View Thread
I have been going through the same loss as you (well I lost my guy too, not the same) we have been together for 9 years...I lost him suddenly in Feburary 2001 due to heart problems he never knew he had until it was to late. 3 weeks of hospitals then he was gone. He was my life...my best friend, my sunshine! I know it is hard, as i have been FORCING myself to take it an hour at a time most days and some days a minute at a time...BUT you have to make a choice for "yourself" to live! I am preaching to the chior but that is the choice we face...I hate feeling like this! but I will not let it beat me! I will win in the end ...whether I like it or not, God has taken him and there is NOTHING I can do...I cry every night on the way home from work, everynight in bed, and well when ever I want to ...the pain is so deep...but we are strong women! and our kids need us to survive this - Not sure how long it will take but be assured WE WILL go forward! If I ever figure out how I will make a million
Hang in there! Big Hugs go out to you from me... I know they are with us- it helps me to talk to him and ask him for his strengh everyday! We never have to say good bye them EVER !!View Thread
