Today my dear husband went home to be with the Lord. It's Heaven's gain, but I miss him so much. We'd been together for 19 years, knew each other for thirty. He's my best friend. Now, I'm in pain I couldn't imagine. I miss him at every turn. I've accepted his going home; its what we all want, but my heart breaks. I've lost half of who I am. Now I must go on.
Two weeks ago, my husband left for work. Nothing unusual, a tiny headache, that's all. I remember feeling a sense that we would not be together for much longer. I felt death walking with him. On this day, he went to work and called me. He was sick, too tired to drive. I told him to go to the emergency room of the nearest hospital. I met him there less than an hour later. In less than hour he would lie unconscious on the floor-- an aneurysm.
He died two weeks later on 3/31/10.
My pain is without end.

I remember listening to the doctor tell me that aneurysm burst due to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and stress. Earlier the same day my husband confessed that he'd started eating more salt and drinking more coffee, both of which can increase the blood pressure. Now, I'm just angry and meserable, alternating between crying and staring at the floor. My husband may still be with me if he'd just changed his lifestyle.
