My Dad has cancer. He is 80 years old and has lived a full life but my Mom is frantic these days. I think of you whenever I talk to her. That is the hardest part I think, the idea of going on alone. xoxoxoxox
Oh DynamicDbytheC, that is for sure the hard part. Thinking about the future. James is probably a very charismatic guy, someone who just fills up a room with his presence. At least that what your descriptions sound like. You are like that too, I can tell. When you need to the strength to go on alone, it will be given to you. I am absolutely certain of that. For now, just stay in the present as much as you can. Best thoughts to you today. I am sitting watching the waves crash white against the shore and the birds flying over the water, so free and easy. It is such a soothing image. I wish that peace for you and for James.
Lost my husband to brain cancer at 29. Kids were 4 and 6 at the time. He was my high school sweetheart and we'd been married just 7 years when it happened. I feel your pain. I really do. I hear the birds singing outside in the trees, and it's the little things that keep me going on a day to day. It's been 20 years now and I still miss him. I wish you peace.
Mid fifties, married thirty years. My husband has sweetly asked me to try to outlive him, because he doesn't want to face life alone.
His odds are pretty good. Both our mothers (still living!) outlived our fathers. And our grandmothers...

Thank you for those words. He will always be loved by me. I am next to him in Hospice/Hospital.jl333 says,

I wish I had something more meaningful to say. You and James are in my thoughts often. If there was ever true love I think you two fit the build.
