About Me:
I'm a mom and I work as a registered nurse.
About my Loss:
My husband passed away sometime on September 27th, 2010. He was alive when I went to work and when I came home my 7 year old daughter informed me that "Daddy has been sleeping all day and I couldn't wake him up". When I found him, our world was changed forever. We later learned that he had died of sudden cardiac arrest and fatty liver disease caused by alcoholism.

Tomorrow...

    Tomorrow it will be 2 years since M died.

    I honestly don't know what I'm feeling. Relief? Regret? There is a sense of sadness there.

    My anxiety has been so high as this day approaches. I keep having flashbacks to the moment I found him. To the feelings I felt when I realized…

Life goes on, but it isn't always easy.

  On the 27th, it will be two years since Matt died. 

  The thing that hurts the most now is coming to terms with the fact that he wasn't everything I had thought he was. 

  Every day that I'm blessed to spend with my new husband shows me what Matt was not. 

  Do I miss Matt? Sometimes. Did I love him? I had fallen out of love with him, but I loved him as a person, as a friend. Do I think he was a bad person? Not really. I think he was a depressed person who made bad…

9-30-11

  I feel like I'm so weak. My physical pain has become all consuming. I can't move without pain, I am always so tired, and I have a multitude of other symptoms. Still no answers. 

  Friday became too much. I don't remember much, but I ended up trying to OD and slit my wrists. I remember crying on my bathroom floor just wanting the pain to stop. I'm supposed to be happy and starting a new life. But since Matt died, there has just been so much pain.

  Anyway, I texted my husband…

New start

  I find myself remarried to a wonderful Christian man. Even before the first year anniversary of Matt's death has passed. It seems almost surreal. 

  When I found him, cold and lifeless in our bed, I thought my world was over. That perhaps God had given me more than I could handle. I fell apart. Emotionally I put on a strong front. But there were nights when I turned to alcohol to numb my pain. To the point that I broke my foot walking up the stairs after being dropped off after a…

Natasha, I know you have moved on, but I just read your post about "The day".  I find some similarities with what happened to me.  I am sorry that happened and I am pleased you have found some peace.  I am happy for you.

I am sorry natasha. i know the pain you're feeling. i am an rn also and i too came home to
find my significant other for 30yrs dead on the floor. his death came just after 26months after my daughter's sudden death from aspiration. she was only 40 years old. she died just 6weeks after my mother. my mother's dx of lung ca came just 2 months before her death. i am so beside myself as i feel like i've lost my past with my mother's passsing, my future with my daughter's passing and my present with tom's passing. i pray for you and your daughter.

The Wheels on (My Grief) Bus Go Round and Round...

New Year - 2025!At the start of the year I returned to Thailand for another medical mission.  This was my fourth trip for this and I was somewhat ready/prepared for the heightened emotions.  Not sure why...no real connection to Jen or her accident, but in the past these trips offer some extended alone time, away from others, away from people that speak the same language and as such seem to bring the thoughts back to the forefront.  Strangely, the same levels of emotionality were not there.  Not…See More

Speed Weasel commented on Dottie's status
"Dottie, do you find the anniversary dates to still be as emotionally difficult as the first couple times?  I find that some years, it is very fresh and raw, others almost (almost) slip by without fanfare."

Speed Weasel replied to Mabel Murphy's discussion My husband passed away
"So sorry for you with his passing. That is rough, that there has been so much time between the initial diagnosis and the final moments.  On top of the 'normal' grief, you may also start to feel relief, which is likely to add to the…"

My husband passed away

My husband passed away last Saturday after a long illness. His memorial service is next week. We have three boys, ages 14, 11, and 6. I'm glad I found this place. It seems to be a place of great caring and support. I actually registered here a while before my husband's passing, as I was grieving for his loss after he entered a nursing home. He had been there since the end of 2008, after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease in 2006 and deteriorating quickly. He was only 58 when…See More
