Part 291: Husband Journey: Has Orvieto Been Lost? — 8 Comments

  1. Susan, you have been thru a lot, you handle a lot. I hope Robert does get some peace.I think about you and all has been so much pain for you but I know even the strong can only take so much. I will keep my faith going and pray for you and Robert and Evan…..

  2. Oh Sue, I feel so terrible for you! It must be so difficult to try and talk with someone and not receve an answer!

    Love U,
    Alicia

  3. These situations are double losses. First the person you know and love goes and ultimately the body.It was so hard (with my very intelligent Mother) watching as became so lost.

  4. How painful when those we love don’t recognise us. Painful for us, of course. But for them? Maybe they are already in a tranquil state, who knows? I lost my mother in March, but only her outside shell. What I called Mother I had already lost months before. I feel for you, dear Susan.

  5. I read each post intently, knowing that your writing will transport me to an inner pain that I have never lost, that of my Dad who had a stroke, lived for 19 years unable to speak nor be entirely mobile, but understanding everything around him. I look for some comfort in the import of your writing and do believe that your recovery/”restoration” from your second cancer bout attests to your strength your courage and your durability. Ultimately no matter how painful, Sue, you will prevail! Much love 2 u. Cookie

  6. I feel that lost memory is not necessarily voluntary whereas “abandonment” requires intent. Are you being too hard on yourself? Perhaps I misunderstand. Hugs, shawn

  7. I haven’t experienced this profound loss. My husband died instantly of a heart attack. But my fiancé had contracted hep C and long story short, he lost his mind due to liver failure. In 3 months he was gone. I can’t imagine what you’re going through for 3 years. I do know, however, you’ve not abandoned him. You’re shell shocked from the horror of this, the sadness and loss that isn’t quite final, and mourning the dreams not realized. You’ve been through so much yourself, Sue. No guilt here, please. You don’t deserve it!!!
