Please be careful about second-guessing yourself. There are so many 'ifs' and 'what if we did not' situations. What if James did not have the surgery and died after deciding the big NO? Your pain is so deep, so tied to your soul. This pain is so real, so evident in your posts. Many of us wish we could help you with the load you must carry- the pain, the fear of the uncertain future, the having to do it without your life partner, your soulmate. <BR/><BR/> I am so glad you have your blog- when you have to be the strong one for your boys you need an outlet, a way to share the pain, an opportunity to let off steam so you can focus on the boys AND YOURSELF. <BR/><BR/>A friend I grew up with from Kindergarten onward lost her husband two years ago to a sudden bout with cancer. She is a quiet person who suddenly found herself raising two young children herself. She connected up with a group that of younger people who had just experienced similar losses. What she gained from that was being able to really talk to others who truly understood the pain, the overwhelming sense of suddenly searching for insurance, jobs, new homes, paperwork, etc.<BR/><BR/>You are in our hearts, Kimberly, be strong and we in the bloggesphere will be strong around you! <BR/><BR/>EvaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31188563.post-9278721326466065362008-12-17T18:03:00.000-08:002008-12-17T18:03:00.000-08:00Hi Kimberly...I've just spent the last little bit ...Hi Kimberly...<BR/>I've just spent the last little bit reading all your latest entries (and checking out all of your sold items in your etsy shop - wow! you are so very talented when it comes to the paiting! and so thrilled for you that they were so well received :) hooray!<BR/>and had to giggle about E and his "girlfriend" hehehehe - that's cute!<BR/>and regarding this post you made - just sending you big hugs to help comfort you in your times of need...Shandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176480683431803948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31188563.post-18477907295633478352008-12-17T06:41:00.000-08:002008-12-17T06:41:00.000-08:00I remember that post, Kimberly. Its hard to think ...I remember that post, Kimberly. Its hard to think back to those times, I know... I have memories of my Mom like that & it sucks. Time heals. I hate that saying, but its true.
