Hello. I lost my husband, my best friend 7 weeks ago. We were only married 9 months, and battled colorectal cancer for a year...and ultimately his heart gave into the treatment. I miss him so much.

It's been the hardest thing I've ever been through...and watching him battle cancer for a year was bad enough. I just really thought he'd beat it.

Yeah, I thought my wife would beat her cancer too. Be thankful that the two of you found each other and for the time you had. Your pain is because you loved him so, and broken hearts take a very long time to heal. Hang in there. You will be okay eventually. Scott

So sorry for your loss. I lost the other half of my heart almost 5 months ago. I was married to my sweet Tony for 32yrs but I knew him when I was a child. I was with him a lifetime and will love him and miss him the rest of my life. I am glad you found this group as it is truly a lifeline.,

I am so sorry for your loss. The length of time you were married isn't important, it's how much your relationship meant to you that matters. My husband died just over 2 years ago in a car accident with a drunk driver. He was only 39. I'm new here as well but have already been able to find so much support and so many new friends. I hope you can as well.
