About my Loss:
My husband has been terminally ill since he lost his left leg and all but 4 feet of intestines to a rare genetic blood clotting disorder 3 1/2 years ago. The doctors told me it would be a miracle if he live a year. I have fought tooth and nail to find him the best medical care and bring him back to the best possible health. He was butchered by the doctors who performed the original surgeries which left his Sciatic nerve exposed in his amputation and left foreign material in his abdomen which caused him to get gangrene and rot for 8 months. He has gone through 49 major operations during all this and there is no cure for his disease or his pain. I have come here because my husband is tired of fighting for his life everyday as his condition worsens. I am helpless as I watch my husband die and lose his will to even fight. I am lost but must remain strong for our 9 year old son. What do I do???

Tanya thanks for adding me as a friend.  If I can help you in any way, please ask.  You dont have to be alone on this journey when others have walked it too.

Tanya, you are dealing with so much.  I know, I did it for only a few months but it is exhausting both physically and emotionally.  And all the while knowing what the end means.  The guilt of wanting them to stay no matter how much they are suffering.  The pain of watching someone you love so dearly wither away.  The pressure to stay positive for him and your child so you dont add to their worries.  You have come to a place where there are so many who understand because we have been where you are now.  Please accept this cyber hug because you need it girl!

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
