      I received your hug. Where was the picture taken of your husband? It seems beautiful. Pictures are a source of happiness and sadness. When I get home from work, the first thing I do is look at a picture of John taken about a year before he died. He hated it because he was bloated due to the Prenisone and had the oxygen canular on; but it is how I remember him and it brings me a source of happiness. Judy

    • Sympathy

      From LoveOfLife November 11

      I am so sorry you are going through this pain. I know exactly how you feel. I lost my soul mate, the love of my life on 8/6/09 after battling a lung disease for eight years and critically for 18 months. Some days you don't even want to lift your head from the pillow. People keep telling me it gets better so I just take it one day at a time. As you found, there are no grief groups in my area which also makes it even harder. My God comfort you in your grief. Judy
