Profile Information
- About Me:
- I loved my husband since I was 16 and don't know how to go on. I am alone in a strange town and state and without money, as the US government who we worked for, has not paid me my life insurance or pension and doesn't care that I haven't seen any money since September. Everything is a battle and I'm tired, alone, and scared.
- About my Loss:
- I lost my husband of 40 years and don't understand why. He had A-fib for over 10 years, we were in 4 different hospitals since April and in September he started to turn yellow and when we left our home overseas and came to Texas we were told he was in liver and kidney failure and dying. Why didn't the other hospitals know he was in trouble? They took lots of blood. We were hoping for a transplant but he didn't make it, he went in 4 days and I don't know for sure why.

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Gail, I am so sorry for the loss of your husband after so many years together.
I totally understand the medical comments, as ten years ago, my husband was diagnosed with "terminal prostate cancer." The docs here in TX said he was terminal, no chance, no need to operate. He consulted with all the "top" docs in the state, MD Anderson in Houston, UT Southwestern Dallas, Baylor, Presbyterian, etc. ALL of them told him he had 3-6 months "tops...go out spend your money, enjoy lfe" etc. On a whim. he went to Mayo, had a prostatectomy, & he lived a very healthy, vibrant life until 6 weeks ago. I made several trips to Mayo with him, & repeatedly heard the same types of stories. "The other doctors gave up on them."
That being said, I live in Plano, not far from you, and would love to get together with you. I'm not from Tx, lived here since 1988, although plan to eventually move back to Oregon. When you are ready, please email me, mkath1409@yahoo.com. I understand being alone, as I don't have a lot of friends or family around.
Take care,
Mariann
