GRIEF

Email of the Day: My Husband Loves Me Beyond the Grave

Email of the Day: My Husband Loves Me Beyond the Grave

I wanted to write to you about my first husbandโ€™s passing after hearing you pose the question on todayโ€™s show, "Who would you want at your death bed?โ€ On his last night, my husband worried about me not getting any rest. He promised he was OK and encouraged me to sleep. When I woke up a few hours later, I just knew he wasn't breathing.

 

When we got to the hospital, the doctor told me it was time to say goodbye because the prognosis wasnโ€™t looking good. He then took me into the room where they were trying to save my husbandโ€™s life. I gave the doctor his prepared health care directive that said my husband didnโ€™t want any special measures taken for resuscitation. At that very moment, the nurse called out, โ€œWe just lost his heartbeat and pulse.โ€ I think he was waiting for me to let him go.

 

A year after his passing, I had a very vivid dream of my husband and I jumping off an airplane. As we stood before the opening, he could tell I was very frightened and said, โ€œNo, just hold on to me and I will make sure all is OK.โ€ I took his hands, and we jumped. He told me it was time to let go as we got closer to the ground. I said I couldn't, but he insisted, โ€œYou will be fine, I promise you wonโ€™t get hurt.โ€ I let go and woke up as I hit the ground. As crazy as this sounds, I believe it was him telling me it was time to get on with my life. While the years were difficult at times, I do not regret it. I have been blessed with the love of a very special man.
