3 months
Jeff,
I can not believe that 3 months ago, I was in the hospital room with you after your successful heart procedure. You had eaten a little bit, sat on the side of the bed some, even moved to the recliner because you were tired of your hospital bed. We chatted about how much better you felt. You said that your heart felt different and you thought things were going to be better. We talked about your getting back to work before Christmas and how much you were looking forward to that. You had not worked since July and that was hard for you. You were always such the provider and worked harder than anyone I knew. About this time that evening, you were getting tired. You complained how your back hurt and were anxious to get something for the pain so you could get to sleep so you could wake up in the morning and hopefully get to go home.
I decided to stay at the hospital and just sleep in the chair next to you for the night.
Once again, you made a comment that you might not be coming home. And I was tired and a bit irritated with you for continuing to say that to me. I think I even got short with you.
Little did I know that you were right. In less than 7 hours, you would be gone.
I am not looking forward to tomorrow. It will be the 3 month mark of not having you with me. I still miss you so much and wish I could have you back with me. But I know you would be proud of me that I am not a total mess all day like in the beginning.
Love you baby.
Liz
