    I can imagine that was a tough but satisfying (cause it was her wish) emotional day.

    Doing okay after a rough night and morning. Just got off the phone. Had a call from our Aussie friend and we chatted for quite some time. It helped.

    My faith took a hit. Still trying to accept it and understand it... I've been arguing...

    Brother Dennis, that is natural. We never understand why things like that happen. I always thought my mom, at 94, would be gone before my MIL at 72...but that didn't happen. Mom is here, but not here...that really bothers me when I call her.
    We are still praying for all our hurting members.

    I wish I had words or knowledge to help your pain Dennis, I'm very sorry I don't. To find the love of your life at a younger age and then live out the decades loving each other is something many of us admire and envy it's incredible, and I imagine the pain is as incredible. I and all of us care for you. I'm glad your sharing here, grieving out loud might help. And I believe like fox9988 you will be with her again when it's your time. Please lean on us.

    Hang tough Dennis, things happen the way they do for a reason. One day you will reunite with Judy. That day will be a wonderful day for you both.

    I don't know. Most of today was one of the hardest. So I tried to keep really busy, but, it is evening now...

    There are plenty of hoarders that could use your attention to their posts... eager to learn from your wisdom.
