As my son's graduation from high school approaches, I find myself filled with tears for what might have been. I knew that each life event would bring this on, so I am able to keep myself in check but, I can't help but think of how proud Terry would be of our son just as he was of our daughter at...
There is a patient here that is interested in diaphragm pacing. Could those who have had success with the procedure shed some light, and would you be willing to talk with this patient?
Does anyone remember Barry's map? He would pin where new members were located. I found the link, but I'm guessing no one but Barry could update it. Is anyone out there computer savvy enough to get it going again? Unfortunately, I'm not.
Tomorrow, it will be one year since Terry died. It's just so hard to believe. Because of all of the deaths in the family this year - mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in-law (Terry's twin) - sometimes, it seems longer. Today, it feels like it was just last week. Normally, I am not a "death...
My husband's twin died on Monday. So, I put together the fourth funeral in 10 months. Incredible that they are all gone - Terry, MIL, FIL and BIL.. and my Mom less than 2 years ago. I can't really process it.
I loaded up the car and my son and I headed to Florida yesterday. After a fiasco...
Hard to believe. I thought I was doing so well, and then for the last few weeks, I have been as down in the dumps as I was the first few months. Getting through this grief is emotionally so much more taxing than anything else I have ever experienced. My toughts aer with all of my friends...
My 17 year old and I have spent the whole day waiting for him to go into surgery. I cannot tell you how brave I had to be! It never occurred to me that I would be near tears all day. I felt like I was flashing back on all of the times Terry and I were in rooms waiting for a test result or a...
I am completely paralyzed by the fact that I will be 51 tomorrow. I will officially be older than Terry will ever be. He was 50 when he died. As of tomorrow, I will have surpassed him in age. I always had so much fun being 6 weeks younger than him. It seems unbelievable that he will never be...
My son will turn 18 while still in high school. What do I need to do to make sure he receives survivor benefits until he graduates?
If any Veterans see this, what do I do to make sure he received VA survivor benefits?
Did anyone else see Stephan Hawking on The Big Bang Theory tonight. I find it very encouraging to see him so active at this later stage of the disease.
