Missing my partner :*(

Published

I know I haven't been on here a lot.. I guess I just need to vent. My partner of 13 years, Sherry passed away recently. Basically, she collapsed at home. She was alert and lucid when I went to get the phone to call 911, but when I got back to her, she was unresponsive. I did what I had to do, started cpr, called for help... but I guess her brain went without oxygen for too long. This happened on a Thurs night. Sun night, I made the hardest decision of my life... to let her go. :*( I know her spirit and soul were already gone, I was holding out for good results on an EEG. Some of her organs had begun to fail, and she just went downhill way too fast.

I miss her SO much, and I know time will play a huge part in my healing.....right now, breathing and blinking take too much of an effort....I love and miss you, Sherry, forever and ever, amen. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
