It contains and implies love and trust which will never die. Your words have left me with a lump in my throat and a bit of excess moisture in my eyes. Hang in there, my friend.

My husband and I can exchange a word or phrase and crack up, when nobody else would understand at all. I'm so sorry you have lost that. So, so true.

Having someone know what you are thinking, and why. And the reasons your opinions of things are shaped that way. He still can't listen to music on the radio, but listens to music that she didn't care for...or that was not special to them. It so sucks, and I am sorry.

But it hurts my heart to even think about it and it hurts my heart to know you are going through it. I suppose I won’t fully understand what you are going through until it happens to me.
