I haven't been on here in awhile I had a tragedy about 4 months ago on a saturday morning April 28th I walked into kitchen/dining area asked my husband a question when he didn't answer I looked towards his chair I thought he might be asleep in his lift chair about 3 years ago he had hurt his knee & couldn't hardly walk to good but health wise he was going to gym & working on growing him some peppers in the garden so he had alittle activity but he wasn't asleep he had passed away the coroner said it was a heart attack but I believe he had fluid around his heart & drown he was swelled so bad & didn't take his water pill the way he should also some doctors give older people way too many prescriptions this has been the most horrible time in my life I have lost other loved ones I was real close too but nothing as bad as this he was my bestfriend it is very hard dealing with this I still need lots of prayer every day is a battle it seems, I have missed all your projects I'll have to try to catch up on your awesome projects!

Sorry to hear of your hubbies passing. Just take it one day at a time and check in with your Cute family. I know what you're going through - been there done that (lost my mother, an uncle and hubby all in just under two months).
Take care.

Take one day at a time and things will get easier.
It took me over a year to start to fell like myself when this happened to me.
Make sure to spend time with other friends and family members.
Perhaps getting back to embroidery or sewing will help too.
Hugs to you!

I have no great words of wisdom that will make you feel better.

Having been married to my sweetheart for over 55 years I can only imagine what you are going through.

I will say that the Lord is right there and knows all about it. Talk to Him, and I pray you will get some peace.

Oh my! I can imagine the shock and all of the feelings you went through. He probably didn't even know anything was wrong and went peacefully, but that doesn't help you in the slightest. My dad had a similar experience. He got up to go to the bathroom, fell, and was gone. About 2 weeks ago, I walked in to the kitchen to find my husband on the floor face down. He wasn't breathing and was shaking. I got him rolled over for CPR and got him breathing again. Turns out, he had taken a drink of juice and choked on it. I had just bought an MP3 player that afternoon and was trying it out, so I didn't hear him. I could very well have lost him that day. Now I just cannot bear to use that thing!
I wish you the very best. Hang in there!

This is the one thing all we women dread the most and even though we know it will happen one day, and we try to prepare ourselves, there is really nothing that can prepare us for this kind of loss.
Yes, I have been there and the enormity of our loss is truly overwhelming.
I am so glad you came back here to your Cute family, we will share your grief and try to lift your spirits, as only Cuties can, through love and understanding and most of all compassion, because we all will face this at some time in our lives and there are many here who already have.
I will pray for you in your time of loss and sorrow but mostly I will pray for Him to give you the strength to get through your grief and come out the other side, ready to continue your life and be there for the rest of your family who need you.
My sincere, most heartfelt sympathy, Meg

My heart goes out to you. 9 years ago, it happened to me. No warning, he just fell down and died. I, too, touched nothing for months. Sewing, embroidery, now grandkids, keep me going. (Slong with the job I now need to go to). And I found here a wonderful community of caring people that also face adversity and carry on. Go be with you in your journey into a new life.

What has happened to you is something I dread might happen one day. The good thing is you have come back to cute to talk about what happened and to try to rebuild your life.
that must surely be a first step to healing.
We will all pray for you. and hope that life will look up once again one day soon.

My heart goes out to you, I too have a hubby with not so good health that is on a bunch of pills but doesn't take care of himself and I watch him a lot when he is sleeping to make sure he is breathing. I worry so about losing him. Enough about mine, I wish you peace and knowing he is watching over you now and I hope you can get your life going in a positive way. Bunches of hugs coming your way.
