Great sadness

I am writing as the caregiver for my beloved friend and partner.

Today I will be by his side as we remove his life support. All his cancer treatments were working exceptional well, but it had promoted a heart condition that was underlying.

He suffered a heart attack and possibly a stroke at home from these conditions related to his cancer. He will pass peacefully to the rewards in the hereafter soon this day.

Ohhhhhh my, love and light to you and your partner during this transition of his Spirit to the creator and beyond. You know it's interesting that we ask fear or are sad about death when we really don't know our accept what happens to us once we do leave our avatars we call bodies. I know we miss the physical conscious person that we have interacted with so these years, but be encouraged their energy and love will always be with you in memory, and anytime you want to talk with them, you just have to activate that vivid memory that you will retain forever from this beautiful experiences you shared. Peace and Love.
