Hi Karen,
The biggest thing i can share is that death SUCKS.
I had a friend who gave me a thought process....this is like the worst homesickness you can have. When you are a kid and away from home, being homesick is easily resolved....you know you are going to go home. But this home you have built....a life, a place in the world, everything you know, its gone....and this is the kind of homesickness that there is no cure for. When she said that, it rang so true. I am homesick for Nikki....and i can never go back to that home.
I am so sorry for the loss of your partner....14 years is a major milestone....and pancreatic cancer must have been hell. Feel free to connect here as you need to. I am always around to listen.
I am here if you just need to talk ok.
Hugs to you. Julieann
Hi Karen. I am happy you friended me. You might want to join Widowed Village. They have a group just for caregivers of chronic and terminal spuses. I have found them to be very accepting and caring. Can't imagine the boatload of problems you faced. But then, I live in Oklahoma!
