I was holding Gregory's hand through the mass of wires and tubes.
Standing in front of me were two of the south's finest neurosurgeons.
One of them was holding a clipboard.
Both of them were looking at me.
If you've ever seen Steel Magnolias, you know what comes next.
8 months ago today, my husband died.
I am a widow.
But I guess you all know that by now don't you?
Me ?
I'm still waiting for someone to wake me up and tell me it's just a nightmare.

oh darling~i'm just waking up from my nightmare and finding ken in the bathroom floor~35 months later~all i can say is been there, done that and it fucking sucks~~~all we can do is put one foot in front of the other and take one breathe at a time~~
Hugs and love. That's all I got for you. I know it's not enough, never will be, but it's there, and it's true.
Hang in there Kim. What a bad anniversary but just know that G is there with you, wanting to make it better and know that I, a person you have never met, wishes she could make it better too.
:)
hang in there and cherish some good memories today!
I've been a widower for three years. I can't say it gets easier, but I will say there comes a day when you can talk about them with a smile instead of tears. Hold on to the memories, it's the liferaft that will carry you through.
((HUGS)) love and prayers as always for you Coz. I wish I could give you more.
Hey Kim, it's Jay from twitter. I know you don't understand why things happen the way they do and nor do I but I can tell you that there is a God, and he loves you and will get you through this. Psalm 55:22
((((HUGS))))
I know it's hard to grasp, Kim, but there WILL come a day when the 20th won't be a stab in the heart.
I won't tell you the hurt will go away completely, but it will be easier to bear.
(((HUGS)))

My comment is best expressed inside my head. I'm giving you a mind-meld hug. I wish it would get easier for you. But... thinking of the good times together is very helpful.
