    Not weird at all
    I have had many signs that I feel are from God over the years..especially during my cancer battle and the recent death of a dear friend. As you said they certainly don't come as often as we would like..but they do come and there will be more for you. I believe that is a way for us to be comforted and know the ones we love are in a good place as I know Liz is. My heart ahes for you. I wish you peace and many more signs.

    With deepest sympathy,
    Dawn


    I'll share a brief story... My dear friend had a massive stroke and was on life support. His wife, children and clergy were in their home trying to make a very difficult decision. When the finally reached their decision they heard a clock chime... It was an old non-functioning clock that Rich was working to fix. The clock had not chimed before that moment and has never since..... I truly believe it was Rich comforting Bonnie to know to be at peace with her decision.

    thank you
    Thank you Dawn and Donna. That gives me hope that she is in a better place.

    Jon,
    I have just joined this
    Jon,
    I have just joined this post and I would like to express my deepest condolences to you. I noticed that your wife was being treated at Mass General? My husband is also being treated there as well. He had a liver resection done on New Years Eve and his ct scan last week revealed that there are multiple nodules in both of his lungs again. We have an appointment on Wed with the onc to see if he is eligible for a clinical trial they are conductng with BRAF? Not sure what this is yet, and not sure what to be praying for.
    I just want you to know that my heart goes out to you and I pray for God's healing for all.

    Hi Jon
    I think you're a wonderful husband to make the choice that you did for her. She's a lucky person to have her family around her during her final moments. Now she's needed in heaven and she'll never truly be gone. She'll be with you forever just look for the signs.

    Hi John and welcome. Thank
    Hi John and welcome. Thank you for offering to help us and answers questions for us. Hopefully we can also help you. This is an amazing group of people. They helped me through this last year since my DX.

    I really admire the support that you gave your wife. She was lucky to have you by her side. I am praying that you will find peace. I lost my grandmother last week. She was 101 and had a wonderful life. It was still sad. I will miss her. She was the head of our family for many years.

    Thank you all for the nice comments
    I would like to thank everyone for the nice postings and comments. It has almost been a month since my wife crossed the bar. I still think about her everyday. Yesterday we had a family memorial at her parents house. It was hard to be there given all the memories (and pictures) of Liz. Her neices and nephews let some ballons go to honor Liz and her memories (sorry environmental people) Her 9 year old neice attached a note to her balloon for Liz to read. It was very touching and made me a little teary. It was nice to be with family, I just wish she was there too.

    Thank you
    Thank you all for the sensitive and thoughtful comments. Liz talked about the people on this site and how helpful they where. She also mourned the losses of those who could not survive this horrible disease. I cannot imagine what the cancer battle would be without the caregiver being there to help. I know there are people out there that, for whatever reason, have to go it alone.

    Recently I have began to question the existence of god (don't know if there is a separate discussion for this.) To give me my wife and to take her away so soon seems cruel. I was raised catholic but have not attended church in quite awhile. I just wish I could be sure she was in heaven, though I have yet to receive a post card:) I just cannot wait till I can see her again, and often imagine what it is going to be like.

    Jon- re. God
    Hi Jon,

    I am sending you a PM with some of my thoughts- I'd like to give my perspective on a couple of things, in hopes that it might possibly help you or give you something to think about.

    Praying for you,
    Lisa

    Tribute
    What a lovely tribute to your wife. The little ones remembering her and writing her a note although it must have been most painful for you. How are you and Liz's parents doing? I think of you and Liz often.
