Damned sorry to hear this Eric. Having been in virtually the same place just about two years ago, I know that there’s really nothing I can say to ease your soul. I’ll pray for peace and mercy for you and Debbie. Know that you’re not alone as you and her walk this journey.

Like Bill_in_VA I went through this with my beloved Halina in 2017.

My heart is so heavy reading your post Eric

We are here for you and Debby Eric so please reach out at any time you need us.

During my saddest time a true friend gave me a fable that I have never forgotten and I pass this fable to you now.

One night I dreamed a dream. I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord.

When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand. There was only one set of footprints. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma.

"Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You, You would walk and talk with me all the way. But I'm aware that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints. I just don't understand why, when I need You most, You leave me."

He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

rhuff · 10-09-2022, 07:00 PM

Been there and done that many years ago. There is nothing easy about it, but time is a great healer. You will never forget her, but you are not supposed to.

Something that was told to me as I went through it.....The hurt is equal to the Love you had for her!!

gunnertwo · 10-09-2022, 07:50 PM

My wife did Hospice for several years. It's a wonderful program and eases some of the unpleasantness. Prayers and blessings to you, your wife and family.
