My wife's death. First time I'm posting.

[calimary]

22. We're at Year 48 this year, and not a day goes by when I don't wonder which of us is gonna leave first.

Thanks so much, kairos12, for sharing this supremely heavy and intimate loss AND your feelings about it.

I'm glad you posted about this. Seems to me there are many of us DUers who are in our 60s and 70s, at least judging from posts I've read, and "that" time no longer seems as far away as it used to. I find it so comforting that we can all crowd around the online campfire here and keep each other company. And share memories. And sorrows. And fears. And yearnings.

And I always take comfort from that post by our Skittles, long ago, reminding that "someone's always here." I hope you're able to take full advantage of that, cuz it's for real. And it's really made a difference. Sure got me through some bumps on the road. And the best part of all is that it happens to be true. Thank goodness.
