Oh, TJ, you're such a part of so many of the threads I've enjoyed on here, that I feel like I know you a little bit (I don't, I'm sorry !).

So sorry for your loss, it sounds like you did what you could to make the best of a terrible time.

Thinking of you x

Really sorry to hear this TJ, but I’m thankful you got to spend her remaining days together and in the best possible way under the horrible circumstances.

Hoping you find your way through the emotions ahead and into the wilds and mountains.

Sad to hear it Teej, but Julie's life looked like one incredibly well lived.

I dread to think how much time you'll spend on here now you aren't waiting on her hand and foot 😳

I can think of few things worse than losing a partner like that, but In imagine your relationship must have been a particularly close, which makes it all the more devastating. I hope in time you'll be able to enjoy the memories of the good times. Until then I can only add my condolences to everyone else's, and again, take of yourself.

I'm so sorry to hear that TJ.

Sounds like she was able to choose how she spent her remaining time, and dealt with it on her own terms, which is all any of us can really hope for.

Once the sadness eases, I hope you can look back with love and happiness at your time together.

Oh TJ I am so very, very sorry.

This is made worse by the fact you had just given up work and had many plans together.
So glad though that Julie's last days were spent doing what she wanted and being looked after by your good self.

There are going to be many happy memories to look back on and when you're ready many more adventures. Because I'm pretty sure that's what she would want.

Mahoosive hugs.

I can't stop thinking about this, the timing just seems to cruel, just as you retire with all your travelling plans ahead of you. Cancer really is a ****.

I’m very sorry to read of your loss TJ.

From your post it sounds like you did everything in your gift to ensure Julie’s last few weeks went as she wanted.

I think you were a nurse until recently so you’ll no doubt have seen many times where the patient’s wishes could not be accommodated. I hope the fact you could do that for Julie will give you some comfort in the coming weeks.

Very best wishes,

Cc

You have my sympathies and your wife has my respect. To take charge like that at a time like that is something to be admired.

There's no good way for someone to go but it certainly seems like Julie chose a way that was much less awful.

It will be too raw right now, but given time, I trust you'll be able to take some comfort from that.

That reads as a very strong, very dignified and very positive way to go; she must be leaving a big hole. Very sorry for your loss, TJ.

Tj this is such shockingly sad news. My sincerest sympathy.

We’ve never met, but we’ve pulled each other’s legs a few times, particularly on the rugby threads. I’m sure you have several people around you to help you out. However, I only live a few miles from you and have plenty of free time - so please let me know if there’s anything I can do to help you out!

Take care.
