Hi my name is veronica, i recently just lost my fiancee on the 7 th of may , 2011. He is my world and i miss him a whole lot and love him more than life. Two months ago we both got right with the lord. He got baptized about 5 weeks ago and i did a week later. We were together just a little shy of two years, but it was the strongest two years of my life. I have never felt this much pain in my life, he is my soul mate. We were the same age , his birthday was on the 17th of may. His mother had a memorial birthday for him and said that i was not invited so no one let me know where it was. I had him a birthday at my moms on the 16th. I did have a seperate memorial for him at our church, i invited everyone even his mother and his daughter who made it a very difficult time. On that day of his memorial his mother had called the family and told them not to go, some listened and some didnt. It was a beautiful service. My daughter in law had taken a picture of my son and his baby and in the background guess who showed up in the picture, ten feet tall? Yes it was my husbands image. Look me up on face book and look on my wall. Veronica minjarez. It was so awesome that he showed up. My world has bwen torn upside down. After seeing that image i feel more happy to know that atleast in my heart he is still here. I love you my boo boo and miss you very much.

I am 31, my fiance was 41, he passed on March 18th in my arms after live, kidney and respitory failure.  He lasted a week in the hospital and am thankful and blessed that we had a couple of days together while he was in there with his mind lucid enough to know I was there, but I feel like I'm dying.  Today my mom told me to "cheer up" over the phone......I became enraged and cried all at the same time.......I am a hot crazy mess everyday and talk to him, I've kissed his picture for pete's sake.  I don't know where to go in life from here, doesn't really matter to me anymore.  I am sorry that there is a group like this with so many of us in it, but glad to know that none of you will think I'm insane, or tell me to "cheer up"!

I also got a tattoo after my fiance passed. I think it is a very nice way to honor him.

my husband, 38 recently passed away from a heart attack; we just returned from a wonderful family vacation. We were gone for three weeks; during the Holiday Season. Returned Jan 4 and he passed not even 12 hours later. we have four children...I'm having a tough time wondering if I'm doing this right! I plan on getting a tattoo of his name on my ankle with a lei around my ankle....like an "Anklet" .

noel- im not sure what to say a couple people in the other groups are or did get tattoos to remember them im going to when i get the money i already have his name on my hip now i want to finish it. i also made a wall of pictures with my husband in them and of our family. im not really sure how to get closure as we are still young but i hear with time it will get easier to get through the day without them physically there. not sure your beliefs but i know my husband will never leave my side and help me with all these important decisions i will have to make in the future. you will never forget him and hes watching over you and keeping you safe. i keep myself busy with my son and work and one friend that has been there for me since he died, and throughout my relationship with him. i really would not be anywhere if it wasnt for this website either. take one day at a time get through one day or even go by hours you dont need to rush getting over this greif has no time frame. and dont let anyone tell you different you take as long as you need.

Im wondering what kinds of things everyone has done to get closure from something as awful as this. Im so down and lonely because i feel like noone understands this type of loss unless they've been there. I don't know how to say goodbye.

I'm 27 years old and just lost my husband to a sudden heart infection. We had just gotten the all clear from the doctor the day before he passed away. He was in the hospital for a week in December with what they thought was a staph infection. After being on IV antibiotics for 4 weeks we went and saw an infectious disease specialist who ran more tests and told us the infection had cleared up then a day later he passed. We had been together for 12 years and had been married for almost 6 years. We have two beautiful children age 4 and 8 months old. We were in the process of buying our dream home and now I feel like I can't do it without him. I have never been without him and thought we would have our whole life together and watch our kids grow. Now it's difficult to look into the future without him.

I am 30 and just lost my husband of 6 years on July 30. We had a long battle with cancer that started while I was 5 months pregnant with our now 14 month old son. All my husband wanted in life was to be a stay at home Da. He was given this opportunity for all of 7 months before he became too ill. It is so hard to not be angry to see a man who never drank or smoked a day in his life loose the battle to stomach cancer! Now I am a single mother to a son who will never know his amazing Da. Looking for some help from those who understand what it is like to live a lifetime of pain and hurt by the age of 30.
