Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire My Great Loss.

I hope the below can bring you some additional comfort, Leanwolf:

SOMEDAY WE’LL UNDERSTAND

Not now, but in the coming years,
It may be in the better land;
We’ll read the meaning of our tears
And there someday we’ll understand.

We’ll catch the broken thread again
And finish what we here began;
Heaven will the mystery explain,
And then, ah then, we’ll understand.

We’ll know why clouds instead of sun
Were over many a cherished plan’
Why song was ceased when scarce began
‘Tis there someday we’ll understand.

Why what we long for most of all
Eludes so oft our eager hand;
Why hopes are crushed and castles fall,
Up there someday we’ll understand.

God knows the way, He holds the key,
He guides us with unerring hand;
Someday with tearless eyes we’ll see
And there, up there, we’ll understand.

Then trust in God thro’ all thy days,
Fear not for He doth hold they hand;
Tho’ dark thy way, still sing and praise
Someday, someday, we’ll understand.

Very sorry.
I lost my first wife but she was taken quick.
I still feel like she sits beside me.
Be safe and stay busy, I'm sure she would want you to enjoy life as much as possible.
God bless

As I read over this, I have tears in my eyes. I went thru similar 30 months ago . It never gets better. Just different and you learn to live with it. So sorry for your loss.

Losing the partner of a lifetime in such a manner is not much short of torture. About the only solace available is to have faith and hope you can be together again in a better place where no pain and suffering exists.

You were blessed to be able to comfort her in her last days.

One of my best friends is in a nursing home losing his mental awareness to Parkinson's disease at the moment. Due to restrictions because of the corona virus he's lost the consolation of his wife and family when it would be most beneficial to him and also to them.

It's hard to think about how many people are in nursing homes and are in a situation similar to yours and my friends.

As hard as it is to see the daily degradation of a fine and perceptive mind to a condition that has no remedy, I can't imagine being deprived of the privilege of being there to comfort someone who has been a true and faithful friend for years on end.

May The Good Lord bless you with comfort, peace and strength until you can be with her again.

So very sorry for your loss.........I can't imaging going thru that with my wife..

Much respect for you sir!

So sorry for your loss.

LW - just checking in to see how you're doing and offer some encouragement. I am sure that she would want you to continue with a smile, knowing that she loves you. Stay active, find beauty in nature, remember good times. Best, John

You did all, more, that a loving husband could do.
