127. This breaks my heart.

Wed Nov 23, 2022, 09:55 PM

Nov 2022

I read the earlier post about your wife being in the hospital and was touched by how you described the dogs waiting and watching for her.

I don't know you. You don't know me. But I do know how much you loved her. It was there in the warm and affectionate way you wrote about her. It touched my heart.

And now I sit here typing this to someone I've never met with tears streaming down my face. Because of love. Because your heart was in everything you wrote about her and I know how much she meant, and still means, to you.

I am so very sorry. May you find peace and comfort somehow, somewhere, somewhen. Blessings to you and yours.
