I'M SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. I JUST GOT ON THE COMPUTER AND FOUND YOUR REPLY.
I'M IN OHIO NOW WHERE I BURIED MY BELOVED HUSBAND AND I HAVE TO LEAVE SAT. TO GO BACK TO FLORIDA AND I DON'T WANT TO.
I HAVE BEEN TO THE GRAVESITE MOST EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST 3 WEEKS I'VE BEEN HERE AND THE MONUMENT IS IN AND I HAVE IT FIXED WITH BABY ROSES AND HOSTA. HIS DOG MAGGIE IS ENGRAVED IN THE CENTER OF IT. I'M SURE HE WOULD BE VERY PLEASED WITH WHAT I DID FOR HIM BUT TODAY WAS A VERY TOUGH DAY FOR ME. I FOUND AN E-MAIL THAT I HAD WRITTEN TO MY SON TELLING HIM ON MARCH 5 THAT MY HUSBAND ASKED ME NOT TO RUN ERRANDS BUT TO STAY WITH HIM AND HAVE SOME GOOD MEMORIES BECAUSE HE WASN'T GOING TO LIVE MUCH LONGER. THAT'S THE CLOSEST EITHER ONE OF US SPOKE OF HIM DYING. I GUESS IT WAS TOO PAINFUL AND WE WERE HOPING FOR A MIRACLE.
THE THING THAT HURTS THE MOST IS REMEMBERING HIS STRUGGLE AND TRYING TO RECOVER AND NEVER COMPLAINING ABOUT ANYTHING.
I'M SURE YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND MUST HAVE GONE THROUGH THE SAME THING.
I WILL GET THAT BOOK AND READ IT. I ALSO HAVE HEARD FROM SEVERAL PEOPLE THE BOOK CALLED "THE SHACK" IS EXCELLENT.THOSE ARE THE NEXT 2 BOOKS I WILL READ.
IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE GETTING ANY EASIER FOR ME AND MAYBE IT IS BECAUSE I HAVE TO LEAVE HIM HERE AND GO BACK TO WHERE I FEEL HE IS SUPPOSE TO BE.
KEEP IN TOUCH AND LET ME KNOW HOW YOU ARE DOING. I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T GET YOUR MESSAGE SOONER AND GOD BLESS YOU AND BE WITH YOU...........
