Where do you even begin.......my wife passed away May 13th of this year after a brief recurrence of lung cancer.......the void, emptiness and sadness is never ending.......a whole new world emerges that only death can be a ticket to enter....... .....everything I have read since then is so true, HOV newsletters and all of your posting makes it feel that atleast were not alone........friends change so quick and the phone stops ringing.....I'll give people the benefit of the doubt that they are scared as well, not knowing what to say.....you feel hurt that there is no one to share your deep despair with, but yet, you dont really want to talk with anyone....you just want others to listen and show they care.....but I know thats not fair......would I be any different situation reversed?.......confusion, forgetfulness, feeling fragile and vulnerable reigns most of the time......I'm fortunate I travel every week to beautiful western states of the US.....it relieves of the daily reminders....until I get home......but most of all......I just miss my wife of over 30 years.......2 close-by beautiful daughters and 3 granddaughters w/ twins are great......but its not my wife......we still go home alone, dont we? I have to say though Hospice of the Valley made my wife happy her last 13 days while she was there.......they are truly special people..... sent down to us.....I owe them a lifetime of gratitude and thanks for my late wife.....she was in-Hospice because of her terrible condition and they were unbelievable to her......thank you to Hospice of the Valley Sherman Home......
