My Wife
« on: November 13, 2013, 03:27:12 PM »
My perfect wife passed away a couple of weeks ago.
She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005. Did chemo in 2006 and was in remission for 4 1/2 years. It came back in 2011 and she went on palliative chemo two years ago.
Seemed to be holding her own but things quickly overwhelmed her about a month ago and she stopped breathing as I held her hand at 3:45PM, Nov 1st.
Thanks to everyone here who listened to my stories of her over the years.
She'll always be my angel of the first degree...

Dear Mud,

I am so sorry to hear about your loss.  Is there someplace (charity/foundation/cancer research organization) I can send a contribution/donation to in order to honor your wife and your love for her?  If so, please let me know, either here or by personal message.

As you have been a brother angel to me, and I imagine so many others, Mud.

I am so very sorry. There are no words that can suffice.

Light and constant love,

Hops

Doc G,

My wife always liked contributing to St Jude's Children's Hospital.

Mud, I am so sorry to read this, and so sorry for your loss.  You obviously loved each other very much.  Please know that I am thinking of you.

I am so sorry for your loss Mud. I'm not on the board much and don't know the people here well but one thing that was very apparent to me was how much you love your wife and how much she love you. I hope the love and memories you two have shared together bring you comfort. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and everyone that loved her. She must have been a very special person.

Oh, mud, I am so sorry. I have always adored you and wished for your wife to be cancer free so you two could be together. How are you doing? Is your grief terrible? Do you have children - I forget your family make up. What is your support now?
You are such a wonderful and loving husband. I know she lived, and died, in comfort and happiness. I am sure her only regret was leaving you.
Sending you so much love and sweet memories.

OH MUD... I'm so sorry. I saw Lighter's note awhile back and wondered...

We'll gladly accept you in the circle of Amazons, with our bonfire, and just hold you as long as needed.

Mudpuppy,

I really hope you are doing ok this Christmas and all the time.  How blessed you were to have your sweet wife and to know such love. 

Words can't convey what is needed but I send you love and hope that you are healing from the loss of your wife.

Mud, you have been such an encouragement - and I eagerly look forward to your posts.  I'm so sorry that she declined so quickly.  May you be blessed with friends who will share your loss with you without speaking.  May you be blessed with friends who will pray for you.  May you find comfort in the great faith you both have.

Thanks to everyone's kind remarks.
Jan 1st was two months and I guess now I need to get started trying to live again and begin looking forward, rather than back, especially since it's the start of a new year.

Mud, I don't come to the board much at all anymore.  I just thought I'd pop in to see if I saw any posts from old acquaintances.  I just read this and am saddened by your loss.  I think I was reading of your fight for a lot of the time I was on the board even before I was diagnosed with cancer myself!!

I go in for surgery on the 17th up at Mayo.  Another attempt to beat this cancer!  I will take prayers from you!!

I, again, am so sorry for your loss!!
