ronvrens Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Four years ago I was with Pat in the hospital. We knew things were not going well but Pat still smiled at everyone. I said goodbye at about half past ten and went home for some rest. Just after midnight I received the news of her passing. My world ended that night. I have since picked up the pieces and carried on. I think one of the things that has kept me going is being sent out of South Africa and I am now working in Ghana. The longing is still there. When I go home to South Africa and my home is empty the loneliness hits hard. I know I remember the good times we had and know she is waiting for me. Miss her so much Thanks to everyone for always being there for me Ronnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shineladysue Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hi Ronnie, Good to see you and glad to know that you are doing ok. Ronnie, it seems no matter how many years go by we still miss those that owned a part of our hearts. Anniversary dates just seem to bring the sad memory of the day we lost them back to life again. They can never be replaced, but we can move on to make new memories. Take care. Hugs, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michellep Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 My heart breaks for you dear one. I don't think that we ever "stop grieving" for the ones we love. It just gets somewhat easier over time. But there are still those moments that bring it all back to the surface I know I'll be thinking of you and hope your days get easier.
