I am new to this chat type os communication. My son told me to give it a try. I am seeing councilers and talking through things but I have no support system close to me. My family lives far away and I miss her more than I ever imagined. She did everything for me. I loved her with all of my heart. Not sure if the pain can ever be removed. Not sure I want the pain to go away. This is all I have left, the pain, and to imagine the pain she was going through with the cancer. It makes me feel guilty, I wanted to take the cancer out of her and have the lord take me instead. I wanted to leave her here to help the kids and grandkids. She loved them as much as I do. We were married 32 years. Many good memories but she was way to young at 52 to die. I read a book called When will it stop hurting? It helped me understand some of the feelings I am having but I just want her back. "I just want Mary BACK"!!!!

md, I'm so sorry. If you go through and read some of the posts here, you'll see there are people who can relate to everything you've said; I certainly can. The emptiness, the guilt, wanting to trade places, the pain, all of it. It's a horrible journey you've been forced on, but you can survive it. I lost my loved one to cancer too. She deserves to be here about a million times more than I do, but that's not how it worked out. When did this happen? Give yourself time, it will take lots. I think you're on the right track by trying counseling. And your son seems to be a big plus as well; I don't have kids so I don't even have that. Hang in there, just take it a day at a time, and feel free to vent here any time. That's but one of the good things about a place like this (you can vent any time). We're listening.

I know what you are going through. Scott was so much more positive on life then I am. He loved life, He left so many things unfinnished. He left me with a broken heart and many things to do, I found him in bed dead. I got out of bed that morning and made his coffee and got on the computer a few minutes before he did. He didn't come out so I went to check on him. I think I picked him up out of bed shaking him. I had to call my son at work, that was hard, they could barely understand what I wanted. He could had wrecked coming home, he drove about 45 minutes home crying, talking on phone and driving about 95 miles a hour. I miss hubby so would love to have him back.
