Hi Sandi-I just wanted to check in on you. I know the anniversary of Mike's passing is quickly coming up and I just wanted you to know that I am keeping you in my thoughts. I can only imagine how hard this year has been for you. If it is any help, know that your staying on the forum and sharing your thoughts and experiences through Mike's illness has been tremendously helpful to me, and I am sure it has been helpful to many others. I can tell from your words that you are a strong and loving woman, and Mike was lucky to have you with him through this journey. And from your posts I know that you feel so very lucky to have had Mike in your life. Best to you and your daughter as the anniversary approaches.

Wow I missed the post Emma... thank you so much...I'm feeling a little better but... as I sit here... exactly to the hour a year ago is when it started so this is an odd day.... and Im not sure how tomorrow will go... that will be the year...I have had a very very very rough year... and the last six months have been awful...but daughter is struggling in school... I feel we'll turn the corner... I was actually starting to feel better... having a lot of trouble at work... but this too shall pass... I feel that staying makes for a stronger community here... and lends validity to our voices in unison...I have come to appreciate all members here... all voices.. so I lend mine too... to help... along the way... and hope that it helps.. thanks for your kind thoughts....

Yes Sandi, Thank you for all your words of wisdom! I can't speak from a standpoint of losing my husband yet, but I do remember losing my only sister. It has been 14 years now and I still get a tear when talking about it. So it never leaves you, but slowly the grief is replaced by fond memories and happy times. Time is the only healer, but love lasts forever!

Hello Sandi,
I know how difficult an anniversary like this must be. I also know your grief is evident every day. You think about the loss and what will never be. The pain never goes away, though eventually it won't hurt as much.

You're one of the reasons I enjoy coming here and it's obvious that many others feel the same way. If you need anything, we are here for you. Be well.

At first I felt stupid ... hanging on... but seems like every other day there was someone... who had an experience or question that I could answer... as there was today... I come because this is my family...too... and I come because I feel that I can contribute... thanks for the kind words... Sandi
