Dear Girl,

Take it one day at a time. That's all you need to do. It's hard waking up in the morning because at first it seems a normal day, but then you remember what's waiting for you. Pull yourself out of that bed, stand up and put one foot in front of the other. I will include you in my prayers, and your boys. Talk to eachother about how you're feeling, cry together. Time will do its job.

Yours in sympathy,
Anna

Dear Barb - I'm so sorry to hear that he passed! I really feel for you and your family. Give those little boys lots of hugs and love and maybe, later on, you could all benefit from a support group. I can't imagine the magnitude of what you must be going through. We're here for you!

I am so sorry for your loss. How do you go on? You get out of bed every morning and somehow function for those little boys. One day it will be a little easier.

Sending you every good wish that you will find the strength you need.

I am praying for you and your family, that God will show you the mercy to sustain you through your pain. I cannot even imagine what it is like to lose a husband, but I do know about loss (both parents). To lose a husband would be so much more difficult. Hugs to you.

Oh Barb, I am so very very sorry for you and your sons, for the lost of your loved one. I know no words we say can take away the hurt and pain in your hearts, but our words will let you know, we are all praying for you and your sons...and have you in our thoughts.

As some other posters have said, your sweet little boys will help you to go on...at times when you don't expect it and in ways you wouldn't have thought of. You will be strong for them during this tremendous time, but you will also need your time for grieving.

Be gentle with your self. Talk to family and friends about your feelings and thoughts. They may not know what to say or do to ease your grief, but they will be there to listen and help, how ever you need it.

I read this once a web site for those who have lost a loved one, " Time will NOT "heal" this. What time WILL do is gradually tuck in the worst of the loose edges and corners of your loss and make it a little tidier to carry along with you on the rest of your journey".
God be with you, your sons and family. You are in my thoughts & prayers.
God Bless,
Sharon

You and your boys are in my prayers. I (like others) can't begin to understand your hurt. Let others help and try to be strong for those little ones...they need you. Just remember that others care about you and are lifting you up in prayer.
God Bless!

I am so sorry for your loss. I agree with everyone telling you that you have 2 reasons to keep going on. I lost my dh at the age of 35 suddenly and had 4 kids ages 14,12,10,and 13 months. I knew I had to keep going for them. We keep his memory going even now and it has been 23 years since we lost him. My youngest didn't know him but learned all about him from the older ones and me. We lost my son last year and she said at his service that she got to know her dad from being around her brother.
Just take things one day at a time, and take a deep breath. We are all here for you. {{{{{Barb}}}}

Hi Barb-

I am so sorry about your loss. I cannot imagine what you are going through. You will find the strength to go on. God will help you get through this. My father passed away almost 19 years ago (I was only 17 years old). I still think about him all the time and take comfort in knowing that he is watching me and proud of me. You will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs-
Heidi

Oh Barbara, I don't know how you'll go on because I ask myself that question often, "How will I go in if and when that phone call comes".

God bless you so much. It's just that 'one step at a time' thing and love those boys. It's gonna be ok~~it's never gonna be the same again--it's a brand new different world~~but eventually it's gonna be ok.

God Bless you all so much.
Love and Prayers,
Kate

I cannot even imagine what you are going thru and am so sorry. My husband is also my best friend and soul mate and I can't imagine him not being there at the end of the day. God will walk with you to get you thru this, and you have your CC family with lots of shoulders when you need us.

Barb,
I read your posts when you were first finding out what was wrong with your husband and you and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers a lot since then. I am so sorry for you and your boy's loss. I can tell from your posts that you are a wonderful, strong person and you will go on and be a great parent for those boys even when it seems impossible to do so. My thoughts and prayers are with you and them and your extended families........

Diane
