So, so sorry to hear. I don't think the pain ever goes away, it just lessens with time. You now have a very sad, yet shared experience with another member here, Bill Benton, who lost his wife in a similar fashion earlier this year.

Our condolences and prayers go out to all that lost loved ones.

Best wishes for finding your way without too much darkness Bill. Glad you have kids, and hope they live close. I might go to hang with my kids for a bit if faced with a similar loss.

Speechless yet full of thoughts, I have never met either of you but I can assure you she would want you to continue on loving life and enjoying the world the two of you created.  I can only imagine the darkness and emptiness you feel right now, but with everyday you will become stronger and be able to get through this time with her love captured in your heart for eternity.  My thoughts and prayers are for you this day  :(

Sorry Bill, I'll be thinking of you and hope your time of grievance is short.  While not the same, my sister died last Thanksgiving and there isn't a day that I don't think of her or have a dream with her in it.  My condolences to you and your family.
