    I'm so sorry to hear of Peewee's passing. Life will be hard in the coming days, but I pray you will find joy with the memories he left behind.

    Dear Lady PeeWee - I am sending you my most heartfelt sympathies on the loss of your beloved PeeWee. Your story was always such an inspiration to me from my earliest days here in the forum. We were both trying to figure out how to pull back on hours at work while still earning a living, but needing more and more time to take care of our DHs as their needs increased. You did it! Holding you in the biggest group hug a forum friend can send, virtually.

    You are an incredible caregiver and wife, which he knew. I hope your healing journey is filled more and more with memories of the beautiful times you had together, even while you grieve and miss him. I love your picture and how you said he got his wings. So true. You saw him through the toughest times, and now he is free. We are here anytime you feel like checking in. May Stage 8 be gentle on you.

    My heart breaks for you. You were such a patient and courageous caregiver to your DH. I wish there were words… All that comes is tears.
