I just lost my partner my best friend of 12 years to lung cancer this week. I'm not sure what to do i'm lost without her. We faught cancer for four months before she died. I'm so mad because she never smoked a day in her life. and I just don't understand why this happened...

I am so sorry for your loss. I can only imagine your pain and your grief. I couldn't imagine what I'd do and feel if my partner should pass away. I don't like to think about that so I know I won't be prepared when it happens either.

I will have you in my thoughts and prayers today!

Jeannieann I am Viv and I am so terribly sorry to hear that you lost your life partner. I my dear can only imagine how sad you must be. Just know we are here for you to talk or listen whatever you need.

I know it is hard esp. considering she never smoked. I know the feeling I am on oxygen 24/7 and lungs are ruined and never smoked a day in my life. Sometimes there just simply are no answers to the why's we want to know so badly. Many Blessings to you and Please know I do care!

Hugs and Blessings,

Hi Jeanieann. I'm so very sorry you lost your partner to lung cancer. It's so very hard to loose someone you love. I still miss my mother and grieve the loss 4 years later. There are so many feelings you experience in loosing someone and anger is one of those feelings. It's hard to know why, the question I recall asking alot," Why and I just want her back" is what I said over and over in my pain and grief. The answer I don't know but I do know the feelings and it hurts alot. Please know you are not alone. It's so important to have support and people who know the pain you are feeling. Thinking of you, Rachele
Having the courage to walk step by step each day.

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind always be on your back.
May the sun lie warm upon your face.
And until we meet again,
May the Lord hold you
In the hollow of His hand.

I'm sorry to hear of her passing away. I wish I could hug you.
