Life really SUCKS sometime!
Today I buried my wife, my best friend, my lover, my equal, my wife.
Its been a long ten year battle. One that I / we thought she would win. Not to be. There's a saying out there that cancer can not cripple love, shatter hope, corrode faith, eat away peace, destroy confidence, kill friendship, shut out memories, silence courage, reduce life, quench the spirit or lessen the power of resurrection. I know one other thing cancer can not do; and thats take away your dignity. My wife went out on her terms, at home surrounded by family and friends and fighting till the very end. Standing by my wife all these years I know thats important. No matter what your fighting, keep ahold of as many of those things mentioned above and dont let go of hope.
She was a strong women. She had to be, being married to me, fighting cancer and losing our daughter almost four years ago. I will miss her deeply. After 27 years together it will hurt along time. I have another hole in my heart. My girls are gone from me but they are together once again. They are whole and at peace. They are one again.
I wont make this a long post, Im too tired. I just wanted you to meet two of the most beautiful souls that I have ever known. My wife and daughter. Sheri and Alyssa
I think its going to be a long cold winter...

Very sorry to hear that bro. Words can't describe how i want to express how I feel to you. I lost my grandfather whom I was really close to to cancer and I know how you feal. I know your pain is worse than mine but I cant begin to express how sorry I am.
I am so sorry Jesse. I don't know what to say, I've haven't been married that long but I couldn't imagine going through that. I'll keep you in my prayers, if there's ANYTHING you EVER need please don't hesitate to ask.

I feel anything I say here would be nearly disrespectful, words cannot express the emotion I feel on a subject like this. But all I can say is, I know. And I hope, dear god I hope you can be strong, for yourself, for everyone else suffering for your loss, but mostly for her.
Thinking of this subject brings me to tears, so I have very little else to say, except, Amor Vincit Omnia. Latin for "Love Conquer All."

I am so sorry for your lose.The Lord lets strange things happen in our lives that no one can explain or understand. According to the Bible,there is a reason for everything that happens in our life .Even tho you are hurting,take peace in that your Lord will see you thru this.You will be in my prayers.

wow, thats a really bummer.
life has its ups and downs and all you can do when it goes down is look on the brightside. both of them are in a great place now together again and im sure they want you to enjoy your life to the max. sometimes there are no words that can show emotion such as a time like this. stay strong, and keep your head up. good luck and know that everyone is here for you if you need anything. take care brother.
