that I love very much and visa versa ... (we've both through medical scares).

I'm so sorry you are near it seems to losing yours
I'm glad you got to be with her. It means a lot.

A few years before my mom died (she had some pre existing conditions) I said to myself because I knew I was going to be devastated... "she wouldn't want me to be too sad for too long" (because she loved me).

You will grieve how ever you will.
I know it helped me from truely as devastating as it was going into a very deep nosedive.

I wish you strength, and hopefully all the support you would want, need.
