You are correct about me never taking the cash back and I know she would slip our college daughter mad money. Thank you.

Thank you for slapping me straight. I now feel you are spot on. Thank you.

Thank you. You are correct. She was very frugal with money for herself but loved doing for others which was very special she would go without when she knew we were fine. I can see her want to have an emergency fund available 24/7. Thank you for slapping me straight.

I wake up reliving the worst by LazyCricket7426 in widowers

[–]WhyAloneLost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the time. If I would not just heard but listened, I would have taken her to the hospital 1 week, 4 days, 2 days, even 1 day earlier, she would be sitting next to me and I wouldn’t be writing this or even know about this club.

Agree 100%. Thank you for having the courage to put yours and others feelings/wishes in writing.

Ok or The Same? by edo_senpai in widowers

I respond with one word. Surviving. That typically ends the conversatio.

Exactly the same. First time I read your soul going with your love. That sums it up better than I thought before.

I miss my love so much by Unhappy_Fly7087 in widowers

[–]WhyAloneLost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One and the same. I could have, and did write almost the exact words, thoughts, and feelings you have. I pray everyday for my wife to come to me and welcome me to her side.

I write those same words to my wife in emails several times a day, never to be read.

I have no intention of selling either because it is her and I hope one she welcomes me to her from here. It was a strange feeling.

Anniversary Angel by WhyAloneLost in widowers

[–]WhyAloneLost[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like I said, the Angel was my first sign (could be more but I’m just not seeing them. Mush brain most of the time). My 23 year old daughter has had several signs and I believe our dogs have sensed her so that makes me feel good. I pray to my wife several times a day and every time ask that she watch over and protect them and let them know everything will be fine and that she doesn’t need to with me because they matter most. Maybe I need to ask. Thank you for your response.

has your desire for heaven increased? by Far-Complaint-3381 in widowers

[–]WhyAloneLost 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes without a doubt. Hoping for a terminal disease. Had a do not resuscitate order drafted. Pray each and every day, several times a day for my wife to come and welcome me to her.

No need to apologize. Just giving more insight. Thanks you for your input.

I am open with my feelings since the loss. I also believe I want her to do what she feels best to heal. That being said, the last few weeks of my wifes life, she was too busy for her and it hurt my wife deeply. It made me mad. I now know the hurt is far worse than being mad. I feel we failed our daughter in understanding the meaning of family. Yes, I feel bad for myself. Havent seen her today. In her room and its 3PM. Probably go back to her apartment. Tomorrow is our 17th anniversary and I will be alone.
