Hi Ladies,

Sorry to come into this thread that I'm not a part of.

Chrissy, I just wanted to say that I am so sorry that your husband has passed away. I know that I can't even begin to understand what you are going through at the moment and I don't know you and I didn't know your husband or your children but I don't think he would want you to think of him as lost. He'll always be your best friend, your husband and the father of your children. Your kids are a creation of you and him and so he is a part of them, they can never lose that. Every trait, cuddle, kiss and memory your husband has given you and your children can never be lost and therefore your husband can never be lost either.

I don't know what you can tell your kids and I don't know how you can handle this other than keep putting one foot after the other and try to do it how your husband would want you to.

Beyond a shadow of a doubt I believe in eternity and you will all be together for eternity you and your kids haven't lost your husband.

I am so sorry once again. I live in the Redlands which is about 30mins from the Mater so I guess you live close to me so if there is anything I can do PLEASE ASK. And I truly mean that I am not just saying it.

I just pray that peace will come to you and your kids. I am so sorry
