[ Post a Response | Angel On My Shoulder ]
Posted by Judith I am so sorry for your loss, and for all you are going through. My husband passed March 7, 2006. And our anniversary is fast approaching. I remember the pain you feel. Feel my arms around you, holding you. Its okay to cry, to yell, to scream, to throw things, to just be upset, angry, confused, and most of all, to miss your husband so much that you just don't want to survive without him. I too, saw only images of my husband in the hospital, and the fear in his eyes. They are not easy images to let go. But try to picture your husband in Heaven. Smiling, no longer suffering, no longer struggling to breath, no longer looking at you with the pain of knowing he's dying and has to leave you. He is still with you. If you close your eyes and ask him to help you through, you'll feel his touch on your shoulder. I know its not the same as having him in real life, but its all we have now. Try to recall a moment in time, when your husband and you first met. The special times you shared, the secrets you would whisper to each other, the hand holding, the special occasions you got to celebrate. A few people here have started a journal. One of our angels here scrapbooked for her mother. I write poetry and letters for my husband. I wish I could take away your pain. Please know I am here to listen. We all are. Lovingly,
