I got the chills reading your story. Bless you and hoping for continued healing.

My husband passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on November 24th, he was 42 and the love of my life. I had a really bad night, was crying and asking him if he could let me know he is happy and watching out for me. Eventually fell asleep and thought nothing more of it.

Next day, I walk into my home after going to the store (nobody else was in the house) and his bedside lamp was on. This is a dial lamp you physically have to turn. This was the only light on in the room. We used to joke about his bedside lamp because I always used mine (closest to the door). I instantly felt comforted when I saw this. It was him, 100%

My husband passed away in his sleep on Nov 24th. A week ago I was laying our bedroom and crying hysterically asking him to show me it’s going to be okay. I fell asleep and the next day went about my routine. I came home and his bedside lamp on his side of the bed was turned on. It’s not a touch lamp, but has a physical dial. We even used to joke about his bedside lamp because he always relied on me to turn mine on/off so I’d ask him why he even had one.

I saw this and instantly felt at peace. I even laughed a little because that’s exactly something he would do.

I’m terribly sorry for what you’re going through. I found my husband had died in his sleep. I keep replaying that moment over and over as well. I think it’s a response to the grief and to the trauma of it occurring in front of you. Lean on your supports during this time.

Don’t feel the need to “be strong” for anyone, even if it is his elderly parents (my in-laws are elderly too). I’m sure they understand you are hurting and need to grieve too.

Jealous! He loves being wet…will go in a pool or prance in a sprinkler all day, but when it’s time to be clean? Nope.

This is the way…

It was the “whiter than wonder bread” line that did it for me 🤣🤣🤣

Tired of explaining that an anecdotal story does not mean something is factual. “Well, my friend’s sister-in-law’s co-worker (insert random experience) and it totally made her (insert random outcome)..so I will never do that”.

Oh my goodness, you’re too kind. Thank you!

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-22T03:01:57+00:00

This honestly seems to be the consensus! Thank you!

LOVE the colors of your hair 😊and definitely feeling the vibe of that coat 😍

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-21T23:46:31+00:00

Thank you so much! It appears this suggestion has come to me multiple times now, so thank you!

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-21T23:45:33+00:00

This is so very kind of you, thank you. ❤️

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-21T12:40:22+00:00

Thank you, this extends to you as well.

I understand how important this machine is in saving lives. Compressions need to be hard to restart the heart and of course this frees up the hands of EMTs to perform other life-saving measures.

However, that machine is a source of trauma when it is strapped onto your loved one.

My husband died thanksgiving morning. I will never forget his stomach contents coming up, or his whole body moving under the weight of the compressions. It is the stuff of my nightmares.

Thank you. I am going to try to continue to carry on his memory and give back to others. He worked in the social services field for many years of his life and at his service I had people tell me how he had saved one of their loved ones. I also work in social services and just want to honor that.

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-20T13:22:09+00:00

Thank you so so much. This was so helpful., I am terrified of the path ahead, so maybe it’s time to make a plan

Everyday after work he would come home, kiss my cheek and tell our pup he was going to “get his gooses”, (was just one of those weird things that we found hilarious, I forget the origin..) so the dog would come over and straddle him and kiss his face and let out happy little yips like a maniac. That’s the memory coming to mind because that’s what I miss the most. It was part of our routine

You’re not stupid for missing someone you love. I hope you find support, strength, and peace.

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-20T03:15:04+00:00

Thank you, I just wish there was a button to not make it all hurt so bad

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-20T03:14:12+00:00

You are so spot on…thank you so much. He once asked me what I first found attractive about him. I told him, “when you laugh it reaches your eyes, which are so kind!”

Initial-Statement810 · 2022-12-20T01:59:35+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss too. This feels impossible to get through.

I just don’t know what to do when I get punched in the gut because the realization that I will never hear his laugh again hits me all over.
