    Sherry, I am so sorry. I wish I could offer words that would make this time easier for you. Just know we're here to help in any way possible.
    I didn't want to look back at the end of my life or after some great catastrophe and think, 'How happy I used to be then if only I'd realized it.'

    I'm so sorry to hear this. Good thoughts your way...

    A coworker of mine (34) lost her DH (mid-40s) in May - very suddenly. She was off for a month, but has later said she wishes she had come back to work sooner, as simply having the routine of having to get out of bed to go to work, as well as having something else to concentrate on, has greatly helped her.

    So sorry to hear this news. Like your husband, my mom passed away from cancer in a shockingly short time from diagnosis to gone . . . I second the idea that a grief group can be very helpful. Sending thoughts of peace and strength your way.

    You guys are the best. I just wanted to let you know after posting about his being sick. I was so busy for updates at the time and just didn't feel like it.

    Yes, working is theraputic. I am the only bookkeeper in a small company, so I am pretty protective of my "stuff", lol. The boss managed to get a girl that had worked for him years ago to come in and keep the posting up so that I wouldn't have a mountain waiting for me. (we do things totally by handwritten ledgers and files, ooolllllddd school). I fell totally responsible for my part of the operation and we are like family (except the bosses wife is insanely jealous and doesn't like me). Nothing is perfect, right?
    Going home is very hard. But, I have to so there we are. He is a happy little spirit and I want him to stay around a while .

    I have a lot of support for which I am so very thankful. You guys are just icing on the cake!


    All I can say is
