My heart nearly hit the floor when I read your post. I can not even imagine what it would by like to loose one's wife. It must be extremely difficult to even want to do anything. It would make my life seem like it nothing matters any longer. Such a dark hole to be in. It is said that to grieve is the best thing to do. Often a person tries to stuff their feelings in front of others but just know it is OK  for a man to cry. I do not know you personally but my hopes is that you and your wife had a relationship with The Lord. He is always looking down on us and hearing our prayers. In times like this, we have a really hard time trying to make sense of things, but now is when you can give thanks that you had her for as long as you did. Thank God that He gave you the mate He did and dwell on the good memories you shared together through the years. 

     I had a really good friend who's wife was dying and he was her caregiver because he wanted her at home with him and the doctors told him there was nothing else they could do for her. The last time I visited with them, Jim told me that he was warn out and was getting almost no sleep at all. I told Jim to hang in there and just continue to let her know you were there with her, because as soon as she passes, he would be willing to give everything he had just to spend 5 more minutes with her. She died two days later. I know that  would be how I would feel in Jim's shoes. I am pretty sure the emptiness you are feeling right now seems like more than you can bare, but you can do this if you turn your sorrow over to Jesus to help you in this time.

      If there is ANYTHING I might be able to  do for you, please let me know. I can tell you this.....  You are already added to my wife's and my prayer time where we start each and every day in prayer time, asking for God to help our people in need of peace, healing or any other needs they may have. 

      May God bless you and comfort you through your time of sorrow. We all love you, here in The Village and there are a lot of sadness felt here for you right now. We are all here for you.

I feel deeply for you loss. I am not sure what it would be like for me to have to go through this. I don't think any of us that love our spouse can understand the loneliness we will feel each night when we go to bed and every day as we start a new day. I know that I can be working in my shop and if my wife is in the house and I am not seeing or talking with her for the entire time I am in my shop, I feel that everything is fine. But if she is away for a couple of days, visiting someone and not in our home, I feel the sense of loneliness, even though I know she will be back with me in a day or so. But to be in your shoes, at this time, has to be such an empty feeling. I hope you know The Lord and if  you do, you are spending time thanking Him for all the beautiful times you and your wife had together. Know I am very serious about you reaching out to me, if there is anything  you feel that I might be able to do for you.

Thank you Dick, you seem to be able to understand me and how I feel, at the moment my feelings are quite raw but we did have some beautiful times together and remembering all the good times does help, you are helping more than you may know, thank you.

So sorry to hear about your wife. I lost my wife a few years ago and things haven't been the same since.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
