My heart is broken

[Robt Z]

My love of my life, my lovely wife, has passed after a 4 plus year battle with the monster "C". At 48 she was too young to go. How I will live I donot know. Have written some poems to help me express my sorrow. Our dalmation "Dottie" is helping me as she is a good companion. My wife helped me through my valve surgery in 2001 while in remission. She passed June 18th. RZ

I'm so sorry for your loss Robt

I'm so sorry for your loss Robt

I can understand a lot of what you're going through right now. My sister passed away on April 27th from breast cancer. She was only 43.
I remember thinking at the time, that the only thing worse than losing a sibling, would be to lose a spouse or a child.

Life just doesn't seem fair at all sometimes, does it? You and I survived something as terrifying as open-heart surgery, only to lose someone very dear to us a short time later to cancer! It seems like if they can open us up, stop our hearts and fix them, that there should have been some way to fix our loved ones too.

I hope you have people close to you to lean on through this time, but if not, you can always find a friend here to talk to.


God Bless you, Jean

PS: feel free to post the some of the poems you wrote, if you feel like it would help, I'd like to read them.

So Sorry!

So Sorry!

Rob,

I am so sorry for your lose. I know right now you miss her terribly. I was once told that when we lose someone here on earth it is because they had fulfilled their purpose in life and have been called home. Please try to remember that she is in a better place, no pain, no suffering. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Take care,

Hello Robert,

My thoughts are with you. Your wife, though she is not with you in body.....is in a better place and pain free from her struggle.

My husband had cancer of the kidney two years ago. They removed the entire tumor along with his left kidney. We are on watch for the next three years. He has been clean since the surgery Looking very promising.

Can only hope for the best. I know where you are coming from. Hang in there!

Robt,

You have my deepest sympathy. I have lost loved ones to cancer and the hole it leaves is so big! Keep praying- even when you think you can't. The pain will lessen eventually and the happy memories will again begin to dominate.

Give yourself time to grieve. Waves of it may even hit you when you are by yourself driving down the road. If you have to pull over and cry- do it. Remember that we are here if you need to talk.

God Bless,
Betty(bvdr)

Robt, I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear wife. She must have been a wonderful individual; otherwise she wouldn't have left such a void in your life.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Dear Robert:

I send you my deepest condolences and prayers. I, too, lost a loved one to cancer. My dear Joe weht along Dec 18, 1996, after a year long battle. We had a lovely last year together, even tho he was so very ill. We made so many memories, as I am sure you did, too. We covered a lifetime in that year and spent nearly every moment together. I couldn't be happier for the time I had with my dear Joe and I am sure you feel the same about your wonderful wife. You know within yourself that she will always be there with you - you will feel her presence and she will help you over many rough spots. I promise. Ann God bless

[Robt Z]

thank you all

thank you all

I do very much appreciate your kind words and thoughts. Dottie, our Dalmation, and I just got back from the cemetery. Very peaceful and nice there. I try to stop by each day to visit. Dottie was really hers as she followed my wife around the house everywhere all day. Now she is lying at my feet while I type this to you. My poems are sad and were written around the time of the funeral and shortly after. I will post one of them soon and see if you want them all. There are 4. It means alot to me what you wrote. It was really just her and I. 23 years since we met. She was very sweet and kind and the most beautiful girl I ever saw. Am taking it slow, day to day, and trying to keep it all together. I will be ok. Thanks again to you all. Robert Z
