Freedom

[Dicampbell]

My beloved Larry, lost his battle with PSP on 3/29/18. I miss him more that I could have ever imagined. He died painfree and surrounded by his children and me. I plan to see him again one day and we will dance until the sun comes up.

Dicampbell,

What a lovely photo of your loved one. He had a nice death surrounded by those who loved him too. I love your idea of meeting him again and dancing until the sun comes up. A lovely thought. So very sorry for your loss. My husband died last year. Life is strange after all the years of being together.

Take care of yourself. We are still here for you you know? Getting used to being alone is hard too.

So sorry, but it’s good that he was free of pain and surrounded by his family.

[Heady]

So sorry that Larry has passed away. May he rest in peace, finally free from this evil disease.

Now it's time for you to use those hard learnt caring skills on yourself. Only do what has to be done. The rest can wait until you are ready.

Take care, it's still one day at a time.

Lots of love

Anne

[Bargiepat in reply to DenB]

I have just realized you were just 10 years old when this was top of the 'Hit parade'

[DenB in reply to Bargiepat]

I think I will go and listen to more of Roy Orbison, his words and music are so poignant . Thanks for reminding me of him.

[DenB in reply to Dicampbell]

So sorry that you lost your lovely man. And I think I should have sent my last post to Bargiepat. But never mind, wasn't it a beautiful song? X D

[JantheNana in reply to Dicampbell]

That song was spot on.My beloved Don,who passed away last July,has visited me several times in dreams. I hope yours will too! It was comforting.

[Marie_14 in reply to Bargiepat]

Patrick

That was one of Garry's favourite songs! He wasn't into pop songs but he did like Roy Orbison. A great song and singer.

Love to you for thinking of posting it to Di.

I’m so sorry your beloved has left you but as you say, hopefully one day you’ll meet again and what a reunion that will be.

Now, for you a new chapter begins and I hope and pray that when the time is right you will find there can be a good life after PSP. It’s your time now. Do what you want to do, not what others want you to do.

Very best wishes.

So sorry for your loss and I understand how you feel having lost my hubby in December. Life is very different now and it’s one day at a time. My very best wishes to you. Jxx

[amrittsk]

How long he had psp

[Dicampbell in reply to amrittsk]

7 years from 1st signs until death. 3 years after his PSP dx. He followed the steps of PSP to the letter. Had he not had a DNR I am sure he would have lived longer. But that was not what he wanted. So no feeding tube. Hospice was wonderful and kept him comfortable his last horrendous imagined week. Best to you! ❤️

[AliBee1]

What a lovely photo. I love the idea of you meeting up with him again and dancing till the sun comes up. Hang on to that during the bleak days.

Hugs Ali B xx

[Dicampbell in reply to AliBee1]

I am counting on it Ali! Let’s all meet up when we get there. A big PSP group dancing all night. No wheelchairs or walkers allowed. ❤️

[Allan924]

Hi Di

I am so sorry for your loss. Condolences from Barry and Kim (Allan924)

[Dicampbell in reply to Allan924]

Thank you Barry and Kim. Very much.

[Beads0122]

I am so sorry for you loss, but glad that you have the hope of future dancing. Thank you for sharing the photo. It is good some see some normalcy in times of this cruel disease. Prayers to you and your family,

Bobby

[Zeberdee]

Yes I do dream about my hubby.....some mornings I feel him kiss me goodbye before he went to work....very strange because he had been retired for some years. Each morning to his picture I tell him what I shall do, what the weather is like and that I love and miss him desperately. Even now I get tearful days and cannot believe I have to carry on without him. Please talk about your husband to anyone remembering all the good times you shared and if the tears fall let them it does help. Thinking of you. Jxx

[Dicampbell in reply to Zeberdee]

Thanks Zeberdee. Thinking of you as well. Please, stay in touch. ❤️

[Zeberdee in reply to Dicampbell]

I will ... that would be good .... Jxx

[Dicampbell]

Thanks Bobby. When we first heard PSP we had no idea what lurked ahead. 💔

[johns65]

So sorry for your loss. It is with great hope that we will see our husbands again where they will be free of PSP and we will dance a happy dance with them. We lost my husband on March 9, 2018, so I know how you are feeling. Take care and here is a hug for you. Joyce from Minnesota

[Dicampbell in reply to johns65]

And a big hug to you Joyce from Maryland. So sorry. Sorry for all of us !

[ketchupman]

Wonderful picture and wonderful vision of what is to come. He is at peace and no longer battling this horrible disease. May God comfort you during this difficult time. It’s been 21 months since the passing of my bride and it still hurts. Not as bad as those initial days, but there is still mental pain of losing someone you loved and cared for so intensively during their last years of life.

[Dicampbell in reply to ketchupman]

Very nice reply. Thank you and I am so sorry about you losing your love.

[LuisRodicioRodicio]

A big hug.

[Mikey12345]

So very sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing his final moments with us. It gives me hope, looking forward to peace and acceptance for both of us.

Can not imagine the pain with the loss. I mourn my husband every night as I leave his facility and I'm sure the final loss is worse.

Bless you and I pray for peace for you. You know he is there already.

Hugs, Liz

[Dicampbell in reply to Mikey12345]

Liz, I hope you have access to Hospice. During the last week the RN came daily and adjusted his meds. For me it seemed like the end came very quickly. Just two weeks earlier I was planning on how to get him to the beach for a few days. He was in a nursing facility as well. He stopped eating and drinking, became non-responsive and passed 5 days later. Hugs to you. It is a brutal disease.

[Mikey12345 in reply to Dicampbell]

We do have access to hospice. He has questioned stopping eating and drinking and the effects of that.

Thanks for your reply. 🙏🙏💕

[Ratcliffe]

Hello Di,

I'm sorry to hear your news that your man has died. It is a comfort that he had a good death, with the family around.

You need to look after yourself now, and get yourself ready for the all night dancing in the future 👍

Hugs, at this unhappy time.

Derek

[Dicampbell in reply to Ratcliffe]

Ahh. Derek, you made me laugh. First laugh in 2 weeks. Thank you!

[Tttp]

Di, so very for your Larry, the dreaded disease is now over with for him, thankfully he went in peace. Take care of yourself. Nettie

[Dicampbell in reply to Tttp]

Thank you Nettie.

[Martha_k_uk]

Diana,

I thought I had replies to this but maybe that was FB. Thank you for sharing this beautiful photograph of your beloved Larry.

It is an impossible situation but take comfort from the fact that he is no longer suffering.

Much love x

[Boobe]

My condolence for your loss. I haven't posted anything here yet. Just reading everyone else's posts and I wish I could hug your pain away.

[Tippyleaf]

So sorry for your loss. Love the photo Larry looked like a man who liked the good things in life a cat and a nice glass of wine. I am so ‘relieved’ for you that his passing was probably as good as it gets.

Be kind to yourself now you must be exhausted. As others have said one day at a time

Take care sending love and hugs

Tippy

[Dicampbell in reply to Tippyleaf]

Thank you so much Tippy.

[Artteach10]

What a nice picture of your dear Larry. So sorry for your loss, but it seems like the good memories stay with us in spite of everything. You will dance again in his arms.
