    I a fairly new member here and don't "know" you very well but we are all in this battle together. I pray for peace for you. In your heart you may know that your DH is now in a better place, but the void and the pain is there...
    Sending my sympathy to you and the rest of your family. I know it must be a comfort to know that you have the support and love of the people here.

    Nora your love for Bill has prevailed. You've seen him all the way down the Dementia Road and into the Light of a better place, with Peace and dignity. You've had a long trip and now, finally, can lay down the Caregiver's load. May Peace and love enfold you as you make your final goodbyes. With Sympathy and Love, Carosi

    Thank you so much, Bluedaze (Nora) for sharing these days with us. The amazing thing is that we think we prepare and we think we are prepared. This is new territory and my prayers for you are for comfort from your family and friends as you go through these next days. Hopefully, the day comes in due time, when you wake up and look out and see that new fresh page, waiting to be filled with the next chapter. Sending another round of hugs. Bet you are sore from all that hugging.
