Good morning, I am brand new to the group. I and bob were to be married on the day he passed away, after only 27 days of knowing that he had stage 3 lung cancer. We have been together for 18 plus years. Life As I knew it was changed overnight. Early in his diagnosis, I had had prayed so hard for healing, for a chance to continue our lives. My answer from God came swiftly, my heart knew He would be healed, not here on earth.
Today, my days are filled with so much sadness. I do everything I need to do. I try so hard to remember all of the times we shared, makes me sadder for I want so much more of him. I’m 62, Bob 70

@marylulu56 I am so sorry. I too lost my husband to cancer in December. He had stage 4 stomach cancer. He was diagnosed late April, started chemo and fought as hard as we could and prayed even harder. We didnt have the outcome we wanted but understand it was Gods plan. The evenings and nights are the hardest because that was when we were together. I was able to be at home to take him to appts and care for him. I am grateful for that time. We were married 17 years but knew each other since the 4th grade. Needless to say my heart has broken into a million pieces. I too try to remember the wonderful memories we made but cry because we wont be able to make anymore. I try day by day to have a good day but when that doesn't work I try to get through the next 15 minutes. Through this group I've learned its ok to cry on your terms whenever you want. I pray for God to give you strength and peace. I am 54 he was 55. Praying for you.
Ruby.
