    What an amazing love story. My pastor had a "suddenly " with his spouse. One sentence he spoke stood with me. He said he had no thought of leaving the hospital without his wife, and there he was, left carrying out her clothes in a bag provided by the staff and her purse. My mom died of a geoblastoma. It took two years to grieve her. I just remember asking God, why?! Why her? He spoke to my heart and said, "Child, there are times I get tired of loving my children from afar and bring them home to love them closer." Those words started my grieving and healing. In my mind, what a paradox. God bless you and your children.

      I can't stop crying... I lost a bf to lymphoma & then met my husband & he passed away of cancer... Shortly after he passed away, one cousin on each side of my family died suddenly one day apart ... The within a few months my step Dad suddenly died & then a month later, my real Dad died too.... All the loss has been so profound that I would cry is someone I worked with was moving away. I couldn't stop myself. Now I stay to myself.... I never thought this would be the new me. 😢

    Very sorry for the loss of your wife. At 73, I’ve lost many that I loved, family, friends, even grieved my ex-husband! God is full of Grace and His Mercy is everlasting, and new every morning. He will never leave or forsake us. Your children have a wonderful Dad, and all things work together for good, for those who Love Him, and walk according to His purpose. Prayers and love from Tennessee.

    I’ve never seen this channel before now. My husband was diagnosed the same day but in 2016. Somehow I knew Glioblastoma was going to be the culprit. From the minute the video started. Holy Spirit led me here. I gratefully cared for Mike for 12 months. My husband became as close to Christ as I’ve seen anyone become. 6.5 years and I’m still praying for delivery from grief. It shouldn’t still hurt this much after this time. I’m so sorry you and yours lost such a beautiful soul. I praise Jesus we know where they are.🎉

I lost my daughter age 32, 5 years ago and I still haven’t gotten through the grief. But I have so much faith and am so thankful that I have the Lord in my life because without him, I don’t think I could survive this life on Earth. I pray that someday we will be at peace and that we will meet in heaven, God bless you ❤

    Thank you for sharing. We just had our 14 year old grandaughter dance into heaven a month ago.
    Lukemia..my daughter was by her side 24/7 caring for her encouraging her believing all the while God would heal her. Then we were told by the doctors they couldn't do any more .So then my daughter had to help her face that she would die if God didn't heal her. God gave her so much wisdom in walking her and her other 3 children through this. My son in law was amazing and God has been so real through this. It is still hard to face life without our precious girl but we trust God to use it for good.
    Much longer story than this but too long to put in a text.
    But can totally relate to your journey. Thanks again❤

      Your story is beautiful, it's a lot like mine. My husband died suddenly and Saturday September 10th 2022. He had a massive heart attack and it was his second one. When you said that your wife talked to you about if she died what she wanted for you. I don't know why I was land so much to have that talk with my husband, years before he died. But I did, I'm so glad I did, it gave me peace, so many people have guilt when their spouse passes and they think that they've gotten to a point where maybe they can move on a little bit. But because my husband and I talked about it, when that time comes I will have no guilt. And I hear peace of mind, I have to peace and passes understanding. I don't know why he can't die, he was such a good husband. I can't imagine life without him, but somehow I am. Just like you, I have moments of joy and moments of sorrow. So many people have walked next to me through this. I want to tell you how you have helped me so much it by talking about Nancy and your struggle and her death. You are the only person that I have ever heard talk about death after your spouse has died that you talked to them, that you felt led to talk before they died about what would happen. To his giving me such peace I cannot even tell you. I and healing now, slowly but surely I am healing. I will never forget my late husband and all the things he taught me in life and all the things that we love together and that the way we laughed together, all the pranks he pulled on me. All the pranks I pulled on him. I just thank you so much for putting this video out there for Christians to come across but it was the right time. I really needed this, I really did. Sometimes I lose my weight a little bit, even now sometimes the pain is so bad. But I know that you understand. Thank you again

    I don't know how this video showed up in my feed, but maybe it was from my Mom. Yesterday, July 5th was the 57th year anniversary of her death. She was barely 35 years old. It was also my baby brother's birthday. We were a military family, so Mom was our anchor. There were 4 siblings, we were Christians, so when she went into the hospital for a simple surgery (bleeding ulcer) we never dreamed we'd never see her again, but that's what happened. My Mom did everything for the family, and my Dad had no idea what to do with 4 kids, ages 7,9,12, & 14. But I remember what our pastor told us when they woke us up to tell us, he referenced GOD's rose garden and the Mom was his rose. I still miss her so much, and ofter think what our lives would have been with her presence, and am filled with gratitude for the 9 years I had her, and know that she is one of GOD's favorite rose and she will be the first in line to greet me when my time comes. Bless you and your precious children and as long as you talk about Nancy, she will never be gone.

So much of what you said resonated with my feelings, ups and downs of being angry and why only 4 years. At the very end, when you said,'You were called to this' it hit me because we were blessed for those 4 years to have a relationship designed and called by God. As hard as it is to now sit here alone, I wouldn't have traded those 4 years for anything.

    Oh my mercy, I have chills. My grandmother had the exact same cancer and that is a tough one to watch take over someone’s life, but our God is bigger than any cancer. You all also went right near where I live in Pigeon Forge. Kind of God sent this grabbed my attention. I’m about to go for my 30th surgery bc damage from radiation tx due to leiomyosarcoma. My grandmother was my world and she lived with us and I shared room with her till I was 18. We just got back from Lake Tahoe, she was so full of Gods love and taught others of all his goodness. She was dx in July passed in March. The hardest cancer I’ve ever seen take over a persons life. Even more great her brother passed couple years later from the same thing. We are huge supporters of research for it. I wish I could have gotten her to Duke cancer center where I went and go. I still live near PF, but travel back and forth. I was 38 wks pregnant when it was found. Stage 3. Your story has me so consumed that I feel like I know you all. Wish we all could have met your absolutely beautiful wife who loved big. Lived for Jesus and taught of his undying love for us. I can’t image how you all felt and what you went through. Thank you for sharing her with us. God bless you

    I so appreciate his honesty abt his feelings during this lonely and questioning time in life. This has so spoken to my life in another situation of deep grief for a child.
    I believe Nancy knew in her spirit those last months. And I believe this love story goes on and on. What a beautiful woman you married in every way and what a wonderful amazing husband she has in you- and that love is still there between you both and in your children’s lives for eternity. Somehow, and I know some would say this is not a Christian belief or in the Bible, I strongly believe she is still there watching over you and the children. Watch your dreams- I believe that that is a spiritual realm not given enough credit. Thank you for your opening of your heart and sharing.

    Years ago, I felt the Lord posed a question to me. He asked me if I could describe my walk with Him in one word, what would it be. And the word that I thought of immediately was disappointment. I hated to say it. But the Lord knew my heart and He understood it was the truth. I loved the Lord and I could say He was good to me and I can still say that now, but this is a walk that has a lot of disappointment and a lot of hurt and pain. And that will never change until we ultimately get to heaven. Thank you for sharing part of your story. Your wife sounds like an amazing woman of God! Prayers for you and your family. God is good and faithful even when we don’t understand.

      @dianalinscome5830 3 місяці тому +9

      I read Isaiah 50 and I found nothing about a reason why God would take a person away so young, that God spares them from future suffering... The only thing in Isaiah 50 is about the suffering of Jesus before and on the cross that He had to endure. I lost my 17yo son in 97 and then in 2019 I lost my 40yo only son I had left. Maybe I missed it, but God never takes our children to heaven, it's because of the fallen world we live in. It's not God's will for our children to die before their parents die. And of course God knows everything that will happen in our lives. Death entered into this world through Adam and Eve, that wasn't God's plan. I thank God both of my sons were saved through the saving grace of Jesus Christ through the gospel of Jesus. I do hope I didn't come across rude or the wrong way, may God bless you and yours ✝️🙏❤️

So relate about the silence, and ongoing agnosticism, the random answers to prayer and then the big stuff that just won't shift... Thank you for your honesty and sharing. It has really encouraged me. If someone as committed as you goes through this, then it is clearly not the result of a lack of devotion or spirituality.

    So exactly what you said. The suffering will be temporary & comparing to the glory that's going to be revealed to us.
