GBM claims another

Hello,

It has been a while since I posted. My dearest husband passed away on 12 Mach 08. GBM took his body and mind. When he lost swallow reflex; he refused a feeding tube and bravely faced death. The DR's gave him a year. He lived for three months!

He was a wonderful husband and father. There are times when I can't get my breath. I have cried enough tears since his diagnosis 3 Dec 07 to float a boat. Now my goal is to live a life that will allow me to meet him in heaven where we will be together for all eternity. I not only love him, I am still very much still IN LOVE with him.

Anne,

So sorry you lost your husband. Over the last 5 months I have read your beautiful poetry that you have posted. I know you miss him terribly and it will take time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Anne

I am terribly sory that you lost your husband.  I pray that you will find comfort in knowing that someday you will be together again.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband.  I too am broken hearted over the death of my 54 yr-old brother, Tim. He died 2/12/08, 9 months after his diagnosis.  We had very high hopes that he'd have more time.  Tim was doing so well until the 2nd week of December.  On 1/7/08 he decided to stop the newest chemo, it was killing him and he was not willing to chase quantity of life, he was only interest in quality.

Tim lived exactly 5 weeks from the day he called to say he was stopping treatment.  Those were precious days for us and I'm glad his wife, children, my parents and 3 other brothers were all able to share them with him.

It's been been just 2 months since he's been gone, but I think of him every minute of the day.  I can't figure out how we'll all manage without him.

Praying for your peace and comfort in the days ahead,

Judy

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I lost my husband Dec. 10, 2007 to GBM.  He too was given 6-12 months and was gone after 4-1/2.  It is a horrible disease!

I, like you, am living my life so we can be together again for eternity.  

Be strong and know you are not alone, I am praying for you.
