Our Dear Backhoe, lost his wife, Miss. Emily suddenly early Monday morning.

The Source URL will take you to the thread he posted on FRee Dominion (Our sister site in Canada), and this link takes you to his announcement here on FR.

Most of you know that Backhoe maintains the thread "DUBOB 11- more tales from the Dark UnderBelly Of the Beast...", and since his post was made there, very few have seen it.

Our good FRiend could really use our support, so please post all replies to Backhoe.

He is busy with funeral arrangements, so may not post much, or at all, but he will read it, and appreciate the love and support.

Thank you, fanfan.

I figured if her heart simply stopped, her blood pressure went to zero so fast she didn’t know what hit her.

That's what I was thinking too.

Praise God, through the pain.

Exactly.

SNIPPET: “Although heart disease is often thought of as a problem for men, more women than men die of heart disease each year. Women are six times as likely to die of heart disease as of breast cancer. Heart disease kills more women over 65 than do all cancers combined.”

SNIPPET: “One challenge for women is that their heart disease symptoms can be different from symptoms in men.” F

SNIPPET: “These signs and symptoms are more subtle than the obvious crushing chest pain often associated with heart attacks.”

I've known that for a while...funny how the fatality rate from heart disease in women is buried by the breast cancer hysteria...

I extend my deepest condolences.

Prayers up for you, Backhoe. I’ve seen a good friend or two pass on, but I can’t fathom the grief that you must be feeling. Hang in there - it gets better, I promise.

Hello,

I am so very sorry for your loss, but I am glad that this poem comforted you. It did me, during a very sad time and I tend to post it on threads where it is appropriate.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, MOgirl
