I just wanted to tell you how very deeply sorry i am for you. I know how you feel. My husband lost his battle with melanoma on April 19th 1999. Exactly 12 years and 1 day before your beloved. He was 29 and we had only been married 5 months. I still miss him sooo very much. I'm 37 now and life is moving on. But i still can't let him go. I am certain i will never be loved again the way that i was loved by him. I wish I could tell you that you'll feel better fast. But that would be a lie. The one piece of advice i can give you is to follow your journey through grief YOUR WAY! Don't let anyone diminish your feelings or try to sway you away from feeling the pain. This profound and devastating experience will most definitely shape the rest of your life. I started running after my husband died. I now run to raise money for the MRF. I'm running my first marathon this November and hope to raise lots of money in his memory. Someday there will be a cure.
Ironically i rarely check this bulletin board but today i had a sign that i felt was my husband saying "hello" and i felt compelled to come here. Maybe it's just to help share my story and give support to someone who is in pain.
Peace be with you….
Sally
