I lost my wife yesterday.

I'm sorry brother, for whatever reason it seems like the strongest people suffer the most in their life. Don't do anything she wouldn't want you to do.
 
Damn I am very very sorry for your loss.
I remember you posting about her having trouble with Covid last year.
 
So sorry to hear that Sherbro. Such awful news. I just came back from a funeral myself albeit an older aunt but still, life is fleeting and every moment matters because we don't have forever. I hope and wish every bit of comfort finds your way. RIP :(
 
Absolutely devastating news, my heart goes out to you for support and healing.

I lost my favorite aunt to cancer , and my oldest cousin to alcoholism this year. Our whole family is still grieving .
 
i am so very sorry to hear this news and honestly even though we have not spoken directly very often here i am hurt deeply by this. your love for her was palpable in the way you spoke about her on this forum as was the happiness you two shared.

more than once i have been struck and happy for the both of you as your marriage has stood out to me as an example and testament to committed love. i have often experienced real joy just knowing your relationship existed.

if there is anything i can do i really would do it man just pm me for any reason whatsoever. also if its ok with you i would like to pray for you but would not do that without permission and if its not ok just don't respond to that-- no problem. i just want to be supportive man.
 
I'm sorry for your loss. Fuck, I don't know what else to say but that. Stay strong.
 
She's gone. She passed away in her sleep for no apparent reason in the wee hours of the morning & I'm in total shock. I'm completely & utterly devastated. And I hurt so bad that it's even painful to breathe. Fuck, I don't even want to draw my next breath without her.

I'm posting here as a means to vent & to reach out because I'm totally alone here in Arizona. I've reached out to family, of course, but I still haven't notified her friends via phone or Facebook yet because I just can't face crying anymore. But I still need to distract myself from the emptiness & silence of this house. So, I've got the television on loud & I'm composing this as my heart lies shattered in my chest.

God, I loved her so much, guys. I mean, I think it was pretty obvious by how much I mentioned her & posted about her here. But you'd have to multiply that many times over to grasp how much I really loved her. And now, she's gone.

I won't know what happened to her until sometime Monday. Right now, I haven't got a clue. She was so young & so fit other than a couple of lingering issues from her tough battle with COVID last summer. She still experienced bouts of fatigue & she occasionally got a rattle in her lungs that she never dealt with before COVID. But other than that her doctor said she was in excellent health. None of this makes sense.

As I sit here alone all I can think of is how much I wish I had held her & told her I loved her even more often than I did. So, please, everyone. Take advantage of every moment that you can with your loved ones & be sure that you let them know how much you love them because time can be so damned short.

Rest in peace, my beloved wife, Jana. You were my life, baby & I don't want to go on without you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's heartbreaking. My best friend just passed away like 2 weeks ago too and I feel a part of me died and this sadness will never go away.

I'm not a religious person at all (grew up Christian) - but not religious, don't believe in spirits, psychics, clairvoyance, very logic driven and science - I swear on my life the night before I found out - I had a dream he got into an accident.

It gave me a teeny tiny bit of comfort thinking "Maybe there is something more... like an energy or consciousness that goes on...."

You may one day see your wife again. My deepest condolences. I knew from your previous posts how much you loved your wife.
 
I saw the original post almost right away and just haven't had anything to say other than being mostly dumbstruck.

One of the things that came to mind as a possibility was close to what you just said. There isn't anyone around here I would want to experience this...but if someone told me to name someone I would specifically not want to have to experience this particular tragedy, one of the very first names that comes to mind is @sweetviolenturg.
spot on
It felt like a punch to the gut. I always enjoyed hearing him post about his life. Was good to hear about things going well for such a genuine and kind-hearted person. Sort of inspiring in a way. Makes you think you might be able to find happiness like that for yourself some day.

I'm really at a loss right now. This is the saddest news I've heard here since lilomma passed. It's good to see the community coming together to support our friend in such a rough time though.
punch to the gut is right, I still cant believe this.

I enjoyed hearing him speak about his wife, about the gifts she gave him, about how she helped people at a mental health facility

It guts me because I have a connection to his wife without even knowing her we both attended South Coast Rep theater academy, she was part of that theater circle she was only two years younger than me I believe

@sweetviolenturg would message me and tell me his wife would say try this food place in the OC or in this place and I said man I love that place, I eat tacos there, he told me how much his wife misses Rubios and they miss Cali.

Im a grown ass man but my eyes started watering I cant believe this, it was sudden she was so young.
 
My deepest condolences Turk.

Anyone who's ever read any of your posts knows how much she meant to you, I can't imagine how hard this must be for you.

Stay strong in these tough times
 
So sorry to hear this brother. I hope you'll be okay, feel free to reach out to me if you need anything.
 
Jesus dude, the hardest of news.

It was obvious by how you posted of your pride and love of her.

All you can do now is honour that, and how she would have wanted you to live your life.
