I lost my Soulmate and my best friend

by Michele
(NC)

One week ago tommorrow.......my soulmate died in a tragic fatal car crash....He was my world....my rock...my comfort and strength. We did EVERYTHING together.....we were each others lives....our kids are grown and we were enjoying the part of making each other our priorities again. He died on Valentines day :( I was gonna give him his card and stuff when he got home.......but he never made it to work. My pain is still raw and new......and I'm so numb....its like a dream i cant wake up from. I told him sev times that I love him more now than i did when we married...even tho i didn't see how that was possible...it was so true. He was the greatest husband and Dad in the world.....and he was always a family first man.

I miss him so terribly...and I dont know how i am goin to go on now.......I know it's just been a week.........but the future seems so grim to me right now....how can i possibly go on without him?

Feel your pain
by: Mischelle (WI)

Michelle,

I just signed onto this today and read your message. First off let me tell you how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Soulmates are dear and you know when you have one. I lost mine 1/3/11 this year, very tragically as well. You say you loved him more now that you are married. That is what I would tell mine too. In fact, I write a journal to him everyday, reminding him of how much I still care and love him everyday. Again, I am so very sorry about your loss, but I do understand. This past month I tried to go back to work and its backfired completely because I listened to everyone else saying you need to go, it will be good for you. Well, don't do that. When you are ready to do things, do them. Next thing I am going to tell you is that people kept telling me to be strong. Those words have completely pushed me over the edge. I don't want to be strong right now, I want to mourn my loss. You do the same. If there is one thing I am learning is that you have to take care of you. This was an awful situation you were put into, and I won't lie, it will take a long time before it gets easier. In my heart, I do know that it will. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. I wish I would have found this site weeks after my husbands accident because I think it could have helped. Do remember there are people for you. Rely on them. They do want to help. That is helping me right now.

Take care and God Bless,
Mischelle (Fountain City, WI)

Hi Michele, I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my wonderful husband in October of last year. While your pain is so new and raw come here for comfort, we all help each other.

You will survive, but it won't be easy. My heart goes out to you. Please know that my prayers are with you at this very difficult time. Take care of yourself.

My heart goes out to you

Michelle,
I was looking on this website for a client of mine that lost their sibling a few months ago when I came across and saw your posting. My heart breaks for you. Your husband sounded so amazing. I know you must be devastated. I suggest for right now to only be around people that can help you in a positive way. it wont matter what people say to you right now. You are in no place for much conversation. i am sure you are in shock. He sounded like your everything. Not many people have ever experienced what mutual love you had for each other. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Sincerely,
Liz L.

My Everything
by: TrishJ

I lost my everything on December 3, 2010. My whole life just blew up in my face. I had to get through all of those family holidays without him. My heart was literally torn out. I went through the first two months on autopilot. Now.....The reality is settling in. He's not coming back. I'm afraid, I'm lonely and still spend 1/2 the day crying. I have to find my way although I'm barely taking baby steps.

I'm leaning heavily on my faith. I believe there is a plan for all of our lives. God decided it was time to take Joe. I don't understand it but it is something I will have to learn to live with. It's like trying to ride a bicycle uphill against a tornado. Some days I'm just tired and can't deal with it.

This site has been a huge help to me. There are many wonderful people here who understand because we are all going through the same thing.
Love those around you, take a deep breath, and ask God for his help. He will listen. Just when things are at their darkest I get a small sign from Joe telling me everything is OK. All things are possible through God.
Blessings and a big hug.
PJ
