  1. Two years ago, my husband of 12 years, was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoma the day before Thanksgiving. The oncologist was extremely optimistic and made us think this cancer was going to be easy peezy, no worries at all. After a year of unsuccessful chemo cocktails, I finally contacted MD Anderson and made him an appointment with a lymphoma specialist. Being from Tennessee, my husband and I both quit our jobs and moved to Houston on January 2, 2019. To be clear, this was made possible because I have the greatest parents in the world who helped us make it happen! To make a long story short, the entire ride was an emotional rollercoaster and my husband lost his life on November 7, 2019. He was 48 years old. So far what I have read in this group is right on. I, as most of you state, have definitely lost the fun in life. Life is a little boring to me right now. I have not been successful at finding employment yet and have a very hard time occupying my time. My mind is continuously replaying the last few days in the hospital and it is torturous. I hope that changes soon, but I am not sure it will. With Christmas around the corner, I want to focus on our children and bring normalcy to their life as much as I possibly can. I have never ever put up a tree the week before Christmas until this year. But it did get put up and that is all that matters. Mark would want that. He would want his kids to be happy. And finally, I try to remember that this earthly life is short and not our home. To God, death is not bad. Missing Mark is natural because I love him so much and he was my everything, but I must remember I will see him again. I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and happiness in the New Year.
