Lost My Husband of 39 Years

My husband was killed in a tragic car accident last July while we were traveling from Greece back to Bulgaria. Five days prior to the accident our son had gotten married to a wonderful girl from Bulgaria. After the wedding we were traveling with the brides parents and my brother and sister in law as well as my best friend. We planned this trip to Greece to relax by the water. On the way back to Bulgaria a car decided to pass in a no passing zone causing a collison with a semi which than lost control and hit us. My husband and the brides father were both killed and the rest of us were injured. Not a day or a minute goes by that I don't think of my husband and how alone I am without him. I wake up and go to bed every night with this anxiety and fear of never having him by my side again. Its been 8 months and I can see how my friends and family have drifted away from me as though I should be over it already. I don't think I will ever get over the fact that a reckless driver ruined my life and my childrens lives forever. I go through the motions everyday and put on a smiley face but inside I'm filled with anger, sadness and fear.

I ask my self why him everyday but there's never an answer. Some people say God had a plan. I don't believe thats true because the God I was brought up to worship and trust would not hurt anyone. In my case it was a reckless driver not God that took my husband from me.

I hope you stay strong and I understand what you're going trough.
