31st May 2006 marks the darkest day I will ever know, for this was the day that my beloved DH, Michael, passed away, suddenly without any warning or signs that anything was wrong. He died of a blocked artery which prevented blood getting to his heart and was killed instantly.
It is the most devastating thing I could ever imagine happening to him, me and to our families and friends. Michael was undoubtedly the most kind, gentle, loving, intelligent and fun-loving human I have ever known. I was truly honoured to have known, loved and been married to him, if only for a short while. We would have celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary on 20th June. I will live life in the eternal glow of his memory and his passing will not make me lose hope ,because he was a total inspiration in everything I do and will continue to do in my life.
I must continue for his sake as I knew he was proud of me and our relationship. I know we will see each other again.....
If tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane
I would walk right up to heaven
to bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
you were gone before I knew it
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow
Mike, what it means to lose you
no one will ever know.

Ohhh Ali!! Words can not express my sorrow for you! I am so sorry that this happened and what's worse it was unexpected. God bless you all and hold you close to Him during this difficult time. I do have to say though, you have a wonderful attitude in remembering and cherishing the good times you had with hubby! :) I often wish more people would feel that way about death, as unfortunately it's one of the parts of life. Your hubby was indeed a lucky man to have spent such a wonderful life with a lady of your caliber! May you have continued strength to go on and remember that all of us are here for you.
*BIG HUGE HUGS*

Words cannot express what you must be going through now. Losing someone you love in such a short time and to something so sudden at a heart attack is really a terrible thing for someone to go through alone. I hope you have some support and help to get by. You'll need lots of it. I hope your pain and suffering will healed soon. Take care and remember God loves you. {{hugs}}

I can't believe it....words cannot describe how sorry I am for your terrible loss. On 30th May, my husband told me he no longer loved me anymore and I thought I was sad....but this pales into insignificance compared to your loss. God Bless you and keep you sweetheart - I will remember you and Michael in my prayers.
(((((((HUGS))))))))) xxx

Dear Ali, I was just reading your blog. My heart goes out to you and you are in my prayers. If tears could build a stairway to heaven is on my mother's headstone and this brought back alot of memories. I will think f you whever I hear one of my favourite songs called Honey which always moves me to tears. I cannot conceive how you feel, only that you are devastated. Look after yourself. Annie
