There are not enough miles on this earth to make the loss of my wife bearable. My only love. If only we could have gone together. We so looked forward to the day I could retire and do so many things together. She deserved so much better. Nothing is worse than an empty house in the evening. Oh for the days when you could sit together and never have to say a word. I miss her so much. Now I try to do things that take me away from the house in the morning and I stay away as long as I can before I return to the emptyness in the evening. So my advice to you is don't plan and save for retirement, live for today because tomorrow may never come. If one of you goes, the other goes also but in a different way. Tell her you love her, show her you love her and cherish every minute together.
