Hi Melissa, I tried to find you on Facebook, but couldn't. There were a few with the same name. Can you try and "friend" me? I'm Barb Chamberlain in Wisconsin. I'd like to be your friend, how are you doing today, we have alot in common and I think we can "connect" and help each other through this life we've been thrown into. Hope to hear from you! Hugs to you, hugs are good!
Melissa, thanks for reaching out to me. Sounds like a nice tradition your family has to honor the life of your husband. Tomorrow we are also gathering at the cemetery and releasing balloons as we did on the day of the funeral. I would love to keep in touch. I'll find you on Facebook

Melissa,
How terribly sad for you and everyone on here and every where else that is going thru this! My husband, Tim was just trying to help someone and it cost him his life and our lives together as a couple! You said it very well when you said you are still numb....it is like being outside yourself trying to get back in and I still cant except that he is gone. I still askGod to awaken me from this nightmare! Yes, have to stay strong for those who are left but at times that is impossible. I choose right now to be alone most of the time so I can breakdown freely if I need to so no one sees me that way I know they wont hurt when they see mein my pain! Oh how horrible it is to be left behind because you want to be with them so badly! My thoughts are with you as are my prayers for you, Melissa.
I just joined this network. I lost my husband of 32 years last July. I am stil numb. Yes, I have gone through the motions, holidays, birthdays, work, etc etc.. the hole in my heart has not even begun to heal. My husband, was not sick.. we walked into our home on a Tuesday evening - 7:10 pm ..he had a heart attack as he walked up the steps. He fell to the ground and I picked him up ..only for him to fall back into my lap to die.
I can not put into words the emotions that I have felt this past year. We have 3 adult children..I have to be strong for them.. but sometimes....I just want to crawl up and say I am done.
I am praying and hoping this outlet will comfort me and others.
