Guest guest Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Ciinder, you are so strong. But I know you are hurting too. My heart goes out to you. Selling the country home will be a good thing. You have wanted to be in the missle base. And this way you can be with Rick. When my first husband was dying of cancer he lived three months after dx. During that time, just one month before he died, was our 20 anniversary. What kind of card do you get for that?? He knew he didn't have long at that time. " hey, congrats on being together THIS long " , " happy anniversary, next year I'll be without you! " ??? It was so hard. And so it was hard when he ask to see what I would be wearing to visitation and funeral. It changed me forever. A part of me became too tough and hardened. But I SO understand you having good intentions and trying with a card. I don't know; perhaps you can lead Rick by example and just sit with the man , kinda in friendship(?) or comfort. Just sit a while. It may help him AND Rick. No specific conversation , just tea ( & his beer(!). It can open doors that need to open so they can be " closed " in time. We love you. Please rest when you can.
