... has shown me a sad face since July 2016 when Glenda was first diagnosed with stage 4 Colorectal Cancer and given 6-9 months to live. The mirror never lies, and I can't even remember when it last showed me a smile or a happy face and regardless I have forgotten what that would even look like. This is not to say in all this time I have not smiled or laughed, it is just that I have not seen it. The bathroom mirror shows only a tear-stained sad face with empty eyes. It never lies, but I wish it would if only for a moment.

I never thought I would feel sorry for my ex, but his little wife is in a bad way. She has this kind of cancer, I think. She went through a round of chemo, then a surgery to remove the tumor. Yesterday I was told that her kidneys were starting to fail. When I catch a glimpse of myself in a store mirror, I think I am seeing my mother's ghost. I was glad we all had some good laughs last night, but today is a new day, so we must cope.

OK, I understand now. Can't imagine what they would be like. You have my sympathy.

Has anyone ever told you that from God's standpoint "death" is an "enemy"? -1 Corinthians 15:26.

Rick51,

My name is Glen and I am pleased to meet you.

I read your post and was trying to interpret it correctly. Did you lose your mate to death after or before retirement?

Thanks,
Glen
