It’s one of those things that we have in the back of our mind but your able to keep it at bay for most of our lives. I don’t want to think too much about if I pass or my wife passes and the impact it will have on the survivor. You get on because that’s what we have to do but it’s difficult.
I’m glad he passed away quickly and didn’t suffer. The suffering is what’s the hardest, when someone is in bad shape for months or years. Going in for surgery and not waking up, I think that’s relatively as peaceful as it can be in some sense besides passing in your sleep at home.
My thoughts go out to you and your family, I know you have lots of wonderful memories to reflect back on and appreciate the wonderful life you’ve had together. I don’t know if you believe in the afterlife or not but I think he’s sitting there waiting, talking to old friends until you’re time comes to join him and I think that is something that gives me solace, knowing that the people who are there are catching up on the happenings of their lives while they wait for partners and loved ones.
Hi @cmplxty, thank you so much! Your words have really comforted me, so yes, it is better that my man did not suffer for long,just went peacefully. And I do believe we will meet again and that he's reunited with his loved ones, and is totally healed, but it will be in a different but wonderful realm.
Just the feeling of emptiness gets unbearable at times, and other times one feels comforted, not an easy road at all💔
