I am grateful for the fact that i got to spend time with him as i had been caring for him full time ever since he relapsed last year.. But people are already been telling me to move on... How do I move on? I can't even look at his picture or hear his name being mentioned without feeling like my heart is being smashed into pieces and feeling like i can't breathe...I had to brace and prep myself as though for war everytime people call and asked to visit cos I know they are going to ask about his last moments.. and i just can't...

I am so glad I have found your blog, I am going to read it from start to finish! I am 23 and my partner of 5 years (best friend of 7) was run over by a car and has been in a deep coma for 2+ months. He isn't dead, and nothing is for certain expect for the fact that my/our life has changed and will never be the same again, I am grieving the life I had and the future we planned. Thank you so much for starting this blog, I am sure you have helped so many people. Again, so glad I found you! xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1856230925324124058.post-88687065352323474522011-05-17T00:43:24.620-06:002011-05-17T00:43:24.620-06:00Emily....
