It’s been a while since I had used this blog. I had bad news from Galway. My beautiful husband Craig had passed away Tuesday morning 18th December 2018. I am having a hard time moving forward and living without him now. I’m very much heartbroken because I have been taking care of him basically for the 11 years we have been together. I was going to view a house in Killea (Ireland) and after the viewing (it was raining out too) I got the call from Galway hospital since he was going down there to get a stent put in. He wasn’t feeling well and kept going in and out of consciousness and then his heart stopped. They used CPR for 50 minutes and then stopped.
I called a couple of my aunts because I was heading back at home in letterkenny. I didn’t know what to do either go Letterkenny or Derry to be with family and friends. So I chosen Derry because I didn’t want to be alone. I called my friend Lorraine who I used to work with back in the 90s and told her what happened. She immediately called for a taxi and told me to come straight over to her work.
I was too upset because Craig was the love of my life and I couldn’t believe that he is gone. I tried getting in touch with family because they were ones I could turn to. But I couldn’t get in touch with any of them until I made contact with my uncle Joe D.
I was so confused and didn’t know what to do. Joe helped me a lot through this hard time I am going through and he is still helping me out for what he could. He is a life saver.
I was going through Craig’s ipad and saw his last picture that he had taken of him in the hospital 4 days before his death.
I don’t think i will get over this and over him. He is always on my mind, but I know he would want me to move forward without him and be happy to continue my life so I am trying to do it and be happy and do this for him. He never liked me to be sad so I have to be strong.
