57. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your wife, 90-percent.

Your comments about your brother-in-law tugged at me...

...when my husband died suddenly, most of those who eulogized him at the service talked of how they wished they had spent more time with them. In the end, I got up and said,"He wanted to see you too, he wished he had stopped by more often, he thought about you all the time..." and that is what gets us through. We do think of each other.

I have to believe that. I hope you do too. Take really good care of yourself, okay? Widowhood sucks, whether we're prepared for it or not.
