I lost my husband June 16,2007. Although he had been sick for a long time, it still came as a shock. The Monday before he passed away (June 11), he had been admitted into ICU at the hospital, we had him inubated, but on Tuesday night he spit the resporator out of his mouth and by Wednesday he was doing pretty good. They let him come home on Friday June 15, and he passed away at home less then 24 hours later. I was the one to find his body, which has been very hard to deal with. My daugher (19) and my son (9) were there at the house also. It has been a really rough time for all of us. We went ahead and moved to be near my other sons, which is what my husband and I had already planned to do when he survived the crisis. The problem is that I was his caregiver for over 3 years and now I don't know who I am any more. I haven't made any friends in our new home, nor found a home church, so I'm kind of drifting & I hate that. I can't work, but I need to do something, I'm just not sure what.
