    He passed a week ago and I don’t know what to do. My heart feels like it’s broken. Every time I think about him it just hurts so much. We were more than best friends. He was my chosen family. He loved and accepted me like no one else has. He could turn the worst day into an adventure. I miss him so much. So so much.

    I am so sorry for your loss.
    I had a friend that I could talk with him about anything and everything . He passe away suddenly. He called me a day before but I was too busy to get back to him.
    I left a message, two days later his son called and said he passed away in his sleep. It hurts so bad.

    I am so sorry. I definitely understand. My friend and I would go months without speaking. I’d always say I’ll call him tomorrow or I’ll text him tomorrow and no there are no more tomorrows.

    Just a few days ago someone with whom I spent 40 years suddenly was gone. Watching TV one minute, lost in the next. Literally. I obviously understand your pain. The days and nights now are so empty. As seems the house as well. A huge, hungry vacuum fills these days. Everyone says give it time. Well meant, but they have no idea of the Agony. Hope you've been able to find some happiness.

    How very much I can identify with your grief. On May 15 of this year I knew, and continue to endure the pain of a similar loss.
    We were together for over 40 years. One moment he was watching TV , in the next he was a contorted mass on the floor and life had flown from his body. I've no words adequate enough to describe this hellish grief. And I'm certain that you find yourself in similar circumstances. The "experts " will assure that given time, all will be better. Perhaps. But for the moment, today, right now, the emptiness is pitiless. May you know healing. I hope to as well...
