Feeling Down and Alone today Today is my wedding anniversary to the man I love with all my heart. He died in October of 2005 at the age of 49. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about him, love him, miss him......want him. The little things like having him come up behind me while I'm cleaning up at the kitchen sink and putting his arms around me just because he loved me. Or the time I let him run out of milk and he hung an empty milkjug by a hangman's noose on the chandelier as you come in the front door:) ...just as a reminder! Or when I came to bed late and he reached out to pat me on the butt to make sure everything was OK. I see him sitting in "his chair" all the time. Whenever I walked by, he grabbed me by the shirttail and pulled me into his lap to snuggle......just 'cause. I keep his work hat on the dresser in my bedroom because I can STILL smell him when I hold it to my nose. If you're married, or with the person you love like this, please tell them everyday how you feel. We are not guaranteed tomorrow and the worse feeling in the world is to reach in the night and find..........nothing. |
I am so so sorry for your loss! I just cannot image the pain you must feel! I feel this way about my husband and will take your words to heart!! Bless you!! |
I;m so sorry... I know how much you must miss him... how many years would it have been today? My husband is just like what your husband would do to you... to the tee... lol... I am grateful everyday to be married to such a wonderful man .. this week on thurs June 21 will be 5 years married... the best of my life yet... I can only hope we have a wonderful marriage as it seems you and your husband did.... hold him close and don't enjoy your beautiful memories... Happy Anniversary to you... |
That is so sad....he sounds like a very loving, affectionate man, & to have lost him at such a young age...I can surely understand the devastation you must feel everyday...getting used to a new normal must be extremely difficult for you....prayers are w/ you... I've often wondered what I would do if this happened to me ( since my DH has diabetes) all we hear about is the complications & the early deaths from heart disease...it's very scary...no one is guaranteed a tomorrow.... appreciated the time you have today.... I forgot to say, Happy Anniversary...you must have so many good memories to cherish.... |
I'm so sorry :( My heart goes out to you and I hope someday you can find peace. I know it must be sooo hard. Your story really touched me and I even forwarded it on to my husband. Makes me want to hug him, right now. I'm so sorry!!! We are here for you here though, anytime you need us! |
Kim reading your story brought back many memories. I also lost my husband at age 49 in Oct 1987. I feel for you because I know exactally what your going through. I am so very sorry your feeling down today. It stinks but we have to keep going. Only time can heal your pain, it's still too new. It's important to keep busy and it normal to feel down at times. There is nothing we can do but keeping going and keep busy. Do you work during the day? I do and that has kept me from going bonkers all these years plus my kids and grandchildren keep me busy. Some things are out of our hands and all we can do it try very hard to stay strong and keep going. Bless you Kim, things will get better with time for you. Hugs, |

I'm so sorry. I wish I could make you some tea. It seems like you can really use some good friends, and lots of hugs. Instead of thinking about how sad you are, think about the good times you two had together. I'm sure it'll make you smile. :hug: :kiss3: :rose40: :rose40: :rose40: :rose40: :rose40: :rose40: |

1 Attachment(s) This is the day we got married and then I'm thru posting on this.. I'm going to the cemetery and then I'm going to do something useful. |
I am so sorry for you loss, but grateful you found someone with whom you connected so completely. May the memories of the years you shared together keep you going on the other days. Hope you have happy memories for your anniversary today. Thank you for reminding me just how much my husband means to me. |
Kim, I am so terribly sorry. My Patrick is exactly like that and I thank God every day for him .... "my life's most beautiful surprise". We all do need a reminder sometimes to appreciate those that we love. God bless you and comfort you on this day of rememberance ... I will say a prayer for you and do remember that we all love you! [BTW ... How's your Dad? I think of him often.] |
I am so very very sorry for your loss. Thank you for reminding me that I need to cherish the time my hubby and I have together. I really needed that today....... |
I need this today too and I'm so sorry for your loss...that had to be the hardest thing ever for you to go thru. He sounds really special and I hope this is ok to say - but Happy Anniversary. He's still with you hon...I just know he is. |
and ps...you are NOT alone. I hope you have a day filled with happy memories and peace. |
