A quote for those blessed with a spouse:

I love my spouse. We’ve been together for 42 years. He does a lot around the house and runs me about as I don’t drive. He’s also a wonderful father and grandfather. Of course he annoys me at times, as I do him but I cannot bear to think of life without him. So, yes, I must stop and be thankful for I have been blessed.

I can’t imagine life without him.

He was my life and one and only true love there will never be anyone else for me xxx

So sorry to hear about you lost your love so recently Basgetti.

Yes I consider every day a bonus with my DH.

Crumbs, SueDonim, you will be an emotional wreck by the end of today. Everyone will understand the mixed emotions though. Be gentle with yourself.

Thinking of you all. As FGT has so bravely said - they would want you to carry on and live a happy life. Easy words for me to type I know but I hope you find the strength in time to do just that. 💙💙💙

Sending my condolences Basgetti 💐

SueDonim I hope you still enjoy the wedding and you know your beloved husband would want you and your family to have a lovely day. Take care

I am so sorry, Basgetti. What a horrible shock for you. I know exactly what you mean by wanting to go with them, it feels terrible to be the one left behind.

It’s ten weeks ago for me and today is my daughter’s wedding. Such a maelstrom of emotions.

Thankyou I have cried continally since i lost him, no purpose to anything xxx

How lovely, yet how sad, lovely that you found a soulmate so early and you stayed loving each other so long, but sad that he has left you through no fault except destiny.
Hold on to every minute and memory of that love, you are one lucky lady who will be totally heartbroken but have such memories 💐❤️

So sorry to read of your heartbreaking loss Basgetti. Commiserations to you and your family

Basgetti

My love of 38 years passed away suddenly on Tuesday. I just want to go with him.

I'm so very sorry for your loss, Basgetti.

Viceversa, we had our 58th anniversary last weekend, OH didn't know, he has Alzheimers, .he still tells me he loves me and I wouldn't swap him for the world.

That's lovely, pably15. Alzheimers is such a horrible disease - but I'm glad he can still say he loves you.

I consider myself blessed with a spouse. Thank you for this quote Macaydia it resonates with me.. We have been married 46 years and both try to live and love every day as though it was our last.
