About Me
I lost my life partner on May 22, 2009, from recurring lung cancer. God broke the mold when he created my husband. For personal and security reasons, I prefer to not add a photo. I still wear my rings as I am still married to him, whether or not he is physically here. I feel him with me 24/7, and hope that I always will. A Christmas gift was a necklace inscribed "I will always be at your side", and I truly believe that. My goal is to have a fulfilled life spent with good friends, family, and know that my husband will return for me one day. I just live and feel for today, as we don't know if tomorrow will come.

Interests
I have no one interest, as they are diversified. I like watching movies, growing flowers in the yard, shopping, working, and spending time with my friends. I surround myself with others who think like me and support my desires, instead of imposing what they believe is planned for me down the road.

Debbie - I'm so sorry to hear of your hospital stay - I hope you're healing more and more since then. I think you're doing everything you need to be doing now. It sounds like you're getting more comfortable just being where you're at - financially, which is important, and emotionally, which is more important. It's good to hear from you again on the board - Hugs, Marsha
Hug
Thanks for your kind words, I know you are right. I did the support group, counselling, it did work for awhile but the loneliness takes over. I have my dog and cat to keep me from staying in bed all day. The dog was my husband's service dog and the cat we raised from 6 weeks old she's now 4. They are my connection to him in this world. Take care.
