After dialysis last night- he checked into the hospital, he knew he had pneumonia, so when I left him at dialysis, he said he would just drive over - (the hospital is next door) they admitted him, and started him on antibiotics. I have been sick so I came home. At *am they called me to come immediately. I just knew- I made the kids get up and get dressed and come quickly-he was gone when they called. He took his morning meds, sat up- told the nurse he didn't feel to good, then he coded blue and they could not revive him.
  My heart is breaking in a thousand pieces, we were so close, we told each other every day how grateful we were to have each other- I love him so very much- I feel like my life is over. I look around my house and see the many things he did for me- like the junky table i bought- he refinished it into a masterpiece for me.......this just sucks. He was only 51  :'( :'( :'(

Glitter my heart aches for you.  My husband died at 52 too, it is way too young -  still after 5 years I miss him and I always will but I have 2 lovely sons and I live for them.  It may feel like it just now but your life is not over, you have beautiful children and you have to carry on for them , hold them close, it will help.  Sending you love across the ocean  :cuddle;
