I must leave for a while. My partner died Thursday, and I'm simply not up to reading and writing posts anywhere right now. I'd love to eat a bullet, but I have three kids, so that's not an option. I'm forced against my will to learn to cope with this.
Best of luck to you all.
I'm so sorry. There are no words that will comfort when you've lost a life partner. I hope your kids and time will see you through.
There's a quote by Richard Bach that has helped me in times of loss: "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends." The sun will shine for you again and your partner will live in your heart always.
