I am so sorry for your loss and I know the emptiness that you are feeling. You will go through so many emotions but try to hang in there because you have to for your sons. They love you and need you. I have two sons as well 19 and 28 and my Robert was ill for 7 years prior to the diagnosis of lung cancer in 8/1008 and then in March 09 metastisized to the brain. Try to take it easy because the stress and anguish of loss your beloved husband will aggrevate the fibro. I have RA and have been in so much physical pain since my Robert has passed and sometimes I jsut cannot get on top of the pain even with pain medication and I have to just stop and get in the bed. Please know that I will be praying for you. Many many hugs to you and your family. Christine
I\'m so very sorry for the loss of your husband. You are now on very long journey that at this point looks bleak and hopeless to you. So many people who\'ve lost their husband/wife have searched for support and somehow have found their way here to Daily Strength. There is a reason for that - because there are so many here who didn\'t know how they were going to make it just as you feel now but through DS found support, comfort, understanding, hope and recovery. None of this is going to make any sense to you now but if you just hang in there, hang on and keep coming here and writing and making friends - you will be able to survive this, I promise! Many hugs, Judi
you have a journey now, that is painful, there are no short cuts, but you will get through this, all of your pain is normal and dont try to avoid it, accept all the love and support that is offered, whilst your dear husband was ill, most of your time and emotion focused on him, now there is a huge void, its best not to make any huge decisions now, i pray for your pain and anguish, and that you find peace within, your friends are here for you always. much love Millie
Your words touched my soul because I have felt and said them, too. It is the worst of worst and your pain is apparent. I send you many hugs and prayers. Sharon
Praying for you Faith. Praying that God will give you the strength to go on. Your 3 sons need their Mom. Just take one day at a time - or one minute at a time as the case may be. Loving hugs, Deb
