(466 posts)You have each other. I too know what it is to feel like the loss of one being has shattered your world no matter how many loved ones remain by your side (I've lost so many people and pets in the past six years that, at this point, I have started joking I must be the boatman on the river Styx - the big two are my husband of 20+ years to COVID without a goodbye, and my mama to a stage 4 brain tumor within 11 months of each other and, most recently, my own beloved furbaby Bellatrix just three months ago).
The people that surround you during such times is the only thing that can even begin to get you through the suffering. Your wife is a wonderfully evolved spirit in that she recognizes the reciprocity of it all.
Thank you for being the loving heart that you are, and I've no doubt that your good boy knew it too and enjoyed every moment with you and your wife. Blessings to you both for taking such good care of him. Sending you so much light and love as you undertake the solemn responsibility of guiding him across.
