I wanted to drop a line or two to let you all know how much I appreciated the support and kind words this winter when my wife was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and passed away feb 20th. There was such an out pouring it was unbelievable .To those that wanted to directly call or and visit I was touched very much so and a little ashamed because I didn't respond to many of the offers to talk and should have but things were so hectic with the speed of the cancer an watching my life and my wife slowly die in front of my eyes was so hard to bare .It was tuff ,my young adult daughters were there for me and I tried to be there for them but let them down as well but we stumbled through it .Life is still not sunny but managed to put the bottle down and the other pain killers I did abuse .I know in time things will feel normal for me and my family .But again thx .I was so surprised at how nice you all were especially not knowing me from adam .I had been a lurker for many years and in the past 3 or so years wrote a little but to be sure I went mostly unnoticed until posted about her cancer.This is an amazing place! :)
