[Just Lori]

Especially true of couples who’ve been together a long time. If I lost my husband, part of me would die, too.

Me too Lori, I can’t even imagine it. He’s been my best friend for 33 years, and in the two years we’ve been empty nesters we’ve become closer than ever. It’s all part of life, but I selfishly want to go first.

Your husband is a lucky guy, JL.

I know my mom is sad my dad is dead. I do have to say that mom is more socialable now (since my dad was bedridden the last 4 months of his life. Thou dad used to trade stock until the last week of his life.)

Of course, a part of me is missing, too.
