8 years with the love of my life, all gone. Suddenly She's Dead @ 27

You can have mora than one soulmate. Good luck!

So sorry for your loss. She looks like she was a kind person. Life is so unfair sometimes. I know your pain is great right now, the pain will lessen as time goes by. But you are still living, so you need to be strong and carry on, especially for your children. Although you will miss your wife, you need to keep loving your children.
Your children did nothing wrong, don't ever make them feel loved less because their mother is gone.
Your wife would have wanted you to grieve but then to let go, not to forever dwell on hour loss.
At this time, it is normal to grieve for weeks, months, a year... but then you have to let go because you are still living and so are your children. You can't keep yourselves in a run and in grief for the rest of your lives. That would be the most terrible thing and your wife would be so sad if that were to happen.

Ok....I was looking into this last night and chimed in then.

I think he was drunk and came here to post. Obviously messed up in dates, ages, spelling, and choice of words. Especially "drowning in Sprite" when more than likely her heart gave out while mid-sip (like the post earlier explains).

The deceased woman's parents being Polish Catholic, probably didn't want to include the unmarried (possibly deadbeat) Dad in the Obituary.

People do stupid things or turn to substances and strangers when in need.

But all the shite checks out, including some Tweets from friends. He even has FB friends from GLP.

And yeah, mods should probably delete this thread, considering all the extra personally identifiable info (PII) some people added.

My situation is not at all the same as yours, but at the same time I feel I can empathize with your loss. After nearly fifty years as a couple and more than forty-six years as a married couple my beloved wife is institutionalized with dementia. I am lost.

I was waiting on this to pass the Chip test before I commented.

Dude, I almost cried.
I'm sorry. I can't really help

RIP to your angel and my condolences.

I've lost 4 family members and the best thing that help me through the grief was, having a diary.

OP isn't lying, he is simply on a different timeline than you. In his timeline the love of his life was 27 when she died and in your timeline she was 28. In his timeline his daughter was 19 months old and in your timeline she was 27 months old. Hope this clarifies things.

Yeah, that's it, different timelines, that explains everything. Wow, I hope you're not serious.

Why is there &#128542 at the end of a paragraph?

Then this response has &#128074???

Pain and breaking hearts are part of life. So so sad and God knows and understands. Go to church with the children. You have to get help..my prayers are with you. This too shall pass..

Speak for yourself Carl.

Sorry to hear that

OP should consider himself lucky to even have a GF. most of us never even had one...

That is why we shouldn't be like Jobs friends in critizcing him there aren't to many special women in this world and she was one of the. The only ones I consider special are the ones in my family. One thing he saying here is that no women can to him can really compare to her because that is the mother of his kids. Someone faithful.

I am so so sorry, OP.

I was Rachael's first best friend in kindergarten/elementary school- we car-pooled. It's been almost 20years since we last spoke but back in November I was putting my newspaper to my recycling box when there she was top of my paper pile in the obituaries. My heart sank i am a mother of 3 still carrying my maiden name & hers was unmistakable & unforgetable- so was she! I think God meant for me to see that- but I don't know why- what I am supposed to do now. My oldest child is in school- the same church/school I met Rachael over 20 years ago so bothered by what happened I asked other parents & the office for prayers. Much love to my lost friend & her family!

I feel for you brother. Same thing happened to my brother. Love of his life taken from him all too young and he is grief stricken, to say the least. All you can do is try your best to live, to live with the memories of the great times you all shared together and remember her in that light. Tomorrow is ALWAYS a brighter day. Just take each day at a time. It will get better.

I’ve read a lot of negative things in the replies to this post. All are heartbreaking. I went to grade school with Rachel. I remember the day she started at Bursley. We were close back then. I haven’t spoken to her in so long. But today something on tv reminded me of her so I tried to look her up & I was shocked & saddened when her obituary came up. I will remember all our fun times together going roller skating at Terry Hall. Your birthday party at the hotel & swimming in the pool. It was that weekend when I got a bad headache that Rachel got me over my fear of swallowing a whole Tylenol lol. Playing with Kyle’s McDonald’s drive through window in his room. Or how her dad tricked us with the quarter to draw on our face with pencil lines. Or the weekend in Lowell where we played chicken at pebble beach. I know we drifted apart & we went different ways in life. But I will always cherish Rachel for being such a great friend. She was a very smart beautiful soul! And she will be greatly missed
