"Hello Maddogdolly. My husband passed away from liver cancer on May 3rd, 2011. I said at the Christmas dinner that I never thought things would turn out this way. My husband was 60 when he passed away and I was 50. As for dating,…"

"Chris, you are not alone in how you feel. You see, my husband had PTSD for years. I went through hell some nights because of him. The drinking, him screaming at me, etc. The last four years of my life I was the caregiver because he had liver cancer.…"

"I am so sorry for your loss. My husband passed away on May 3rd, 2011.  I also can't bear to watch any kind of football, it reminds me too much of him. It seems like so many things trigger the loss, it sucks! "

Hello Linda,

I read your story today on the post and it felt like you were talking about me as well. My husband passed on May 22,2011 from primary Liver cancer. I took care of him until the very end myself as well, even so everyone told me that nobody can do it themselves. I did have hospice at the house the last two days and I am grateful that they were here. I have two children 16 and 19 and they seem to be doing ok. I am alone and grieving too. Dee

Hi Linda, I'm Robin.

My husband passed of Leukemia.  I did the care myself also.  It is very stressful isn't it.  You'll find many of us who have had to go through this and are feeling so alone.  Its a sad thing.  I hope you get to know the site.  I'm usually in chat but occasionally take the time to life my head up from the one familiar spot! :)  Hope to see you around.
