My Wife Passed Away This Morning

Losing a spouse is like losing a part of yourself....like an arm or leg. A lot of your purpose seems to have died with her.

Lots of stages of grief to go through.
Denial, anger, sense of loss, confusion, loss of control, and etc.

But....
You can rise....find purpose again. No, things won't be like they were. But that doesn't mean that they will be bad either. Lots of good life yet to live. Different yes! But still good.
 
Sorry brother. I believe she's alive and well in Paradise with God. You will see her again when you too are there.
 
Sorry for your loss.
Beautiful lady with a bright and sunny smile.

Hi Mud, I hope your last moments together were peaceful and precious.

My mom was in a nursing home for a month after her last stroke and developed sepsis, we had to take her back to the hospital, and when I got there at 6am to see her she practically jumped out of bed and attacked me. She said "I don't want to be here, let me die in peace". That's when I set up the house for hospice and took her home. She passed peacefully in her sleep, just as she wished.

Scruffy's not sure if he'll be so lucky, the way things are going someone might shoot him before he ever gets to the hospital. :p
 
Praise God and thank him for creating you, for your many blessings, and for gifting you the pleasure of sharing your life with your wife. Ultimately she belongs to God but he allowed you the privilege of having her for your wife. Instead of feeling sad when you think of her, instead be grateful to God for all of the memories. And when God deems your presence here is no longer necessary he will bring you to Heaven too.
 
Elouise passed away this morning.

I'm still waiting for the nurse to get here to make it official.

Very sorry for your loss. That's tough. Resting high on the mountain I'm sure. My 87 year old mother passed peacefully while on hospice care on July 19, 2024 surrounded by loved ones. Even knowing she lived a full life, grief is still part of the process. Peace be with you.

It was tough. I had to give her drugs that I knew was going to take her from me. It was either that or let her suffer in pain.....so I followed the nurse's instructions and Elouise left me in her sleep around 7am. She hadn't been able to stay awake enough to talk for close to a week. I kissed her goodbye and let them take her.

I'm just glad that she's finally with God.
