Day 3

psychedoutca

My wonderful husband, 47 years old, was taken from me by cancer three days ago. My heart is broken for my children and myself. I have never felt such pain. He was my best friend, the love of my life. Today seemed like the longest day as I continie to prepare for his funeral. Most of the time I try faking he is at work or golfing, but I find myself coming back to reality and it makes it hard to function for a little while. As if it wasn’t bad enough losing him, I also am grieving for who I used to be. I have been a caregiver for so long I hardly know who I am anymore. I found myself shopping for things for him to eat at the store, it was surreal looking for thank you cards for the funeral reception as well as our sons high school graduation that he was two weeks shy of making it to. Time seems to march on but I feel like I am standing still. God gave me the greatest gift and allowed for him to pass in my arms, but We are never ready for death. I have been working through anticipatory grief for months now, and after it happened it ripped me apart. I have the children to keep me going and they have me, but a part of me went with him, I think. I am truly heartbroken.
