My sincere condolenses. I can feel your pain. My wife of just short of 50 years passed away from Stage 4 Lung Cancer in 2011 after suffering for well over 2 years.

One piece of advice from one who was there...make sure you take care of yourself. Please don't let grief consume you. It is too easy to let that happen. So eat, hydrate and get sleep...it is important...trust me I know.

D@mn...so sorry f/ the loss of your best friend, life partner & soulmate. I can't even begin to imagine the pain/grief & truly send prayers of healing f/ you & her family. All I can say is heaven's blessed with another angel & she'll look over you until you're reunited once again. Guessing her start was to ensure you had enough hummus to eat while you remember her & those wonderful memories. Take care & God Bless!

I am sorry for you and your family, having lost my wife to it as well. Things will look very dark from time to time, but I can tell you that darkness will thin although the mark she left on your soul will stay. Remember the good, the bad fads with time.

Lost my wife to cancer too. I know where you are right now. You will eventually get past the pain and cherish the memories and the good times. Not all are so lucky to have what you had with her. But life is for the living, so go out and live. There are better days ahead.

Sry to hear all that mate. My heart goes out to you.

The PIX shows her emanating warmth and love. You can feel it.

My very best to you.

It is often found when someone loses a loved one, that their presence is still felt. And for years to come. There is a lot to be said for that. And talking to the loved one after passing is pretty common I am finding out. Pretty common.

The deepest and warmest of condolences,

BuzzCap7
