Hi Everyone,

I have not posted, but have been keeping  you all in my prayers and check in every once in awhile.

I am getting ready to have a routine ct scan on the 7th. this time will be worse, simply because I will be going alone.

My beloved husband and best friend, died suddenly on May 16th. He had a very minor surgery and they cant find a reason for his death. So now we wait for a toxicolgy report.

Needless to say, my heart is broken, but I have amazing support so I know somewhere down the road I'll be ok.

I just cant get over how much this is like my first husband at age 52. At least now I am much older and my life is in a different place.

 God Bless you all, and as we we all know, hug your loved ones tight.

Judy

So sorry for your loss. It's hard enough going through all this! I hope your CT is all clear, I also have one next month.

I am so sorry about the passing of your husband.  We cancer patients know it could be us, but to be taken so suddenly and not know why, must be very, very hard. 

Please accept my sincerest condolances. 

I will be thinking of you on June 7th. 

Be comforted in your grief, and don't bother stressing about the 7th. It will be what it will be, and stressing over that while grieving will be hard on your body. 

Blessings!

They say live each day like it is your last one, because one of them will be.  Sorry for your loss.  Most people never consider how fragile life is. Thirty or forty years ago, a gasoline truck exploded in a tunnel in Calif.  Not only the truck driver, but the driver and passengers of 5 autos lost their life that day.   

As cancer survivors we schould appreciate every morning we wake up !

The loss of someone we love is terribly hard under any circumstances, but to lose someone so suddenyl, without warning, that is just devastating.     Love, and hope for peace with the passage of time coming your way~Ann Alexandria

Dear Judy,

To deal with the loss of a husband too soon, not once, but twice, must be so difficult. My heart and prayer are with you.

A lot of us will be with you 'in spirit' for your scan.

Be gentle with yourself.

Dear Judy

Not only is Tomorrow Never Promised.....it seems that even Today can carry the same disclaimer:(

I had not seen you for awhile and figured you had enough of cancer and was taking care of business...and now, we understand and are heartbroken for you.

I'll check back in here after the 7th and look for your 'Clear' post.....:)

This has been a difficult year for so many - and cancer is not always the lead story - Life is the story - and sometimes cancer is a part of life - and then sometimes, stories like yours and others has a way of showing us that few of us get out of here without being scarred. 

It's hard watching my friends suffer....

And that's the damnation of it all for me.

You are of a strong disposition...I know you've been through many things in this life...I have no idea of how you are feeling.  I just know that yours is yet another story of 'true' love between one another.....many people search high and low hoping to find someone who fits their bill and meets their needs.

Stories like yours and so many others I've come to know here let me know that real love and really liking someone for just being them does happen in this life.

And it must feel so incredible to experience.....and as such, this must be why the pain resonates so deeply.    

Wishing you better days as you move forward and know that there are a bevy of women on-board here, who share your pain and walk with you this year as you try and negotiate the next phase of your life.

I have no answers for this one.....

I just want to wish you well and tell you that I'm very sorry for your loss and am so glad that you have support in place....that's the next big thing there - and I'm glad you've got that.

How about a hug?

(((JJ))))
