He’s had a stroke following a number of open heart surgeries to repair and replace his heart valves. I can’t breathe, I overheard them say terminal stroke. I love him so much.

This is so awful, I'm so sorry OP for you and your children. I hope you all find comfort in each other and get back to him as soon as possible for those last moments.

So very sorry 💐

Don't worry about what people on the train think, anyone who'd judge you isn't worth wasting a thought on. Big hugs and hand hold from me, I'm so sorry you're going through this. Take things one step at a time, I hope you and your family find comfort and support with each other xx

Nomorechipsforme · 15/05/2025 20:50

Oh my goodness, I can't imagine what you are going through, agree with @Glitterybee I'm also not sure if you are religious but my prayers are for you and yours tonight. I too would come and sit with you and @StScholastica at this time if I could and hold your hand. Don't give a second thought about crying on the train. I have done it on a few occasions, cry like no one is watching you will need the strength when you get to the end of this train ride xxx ❤️ my thoughts are with you x

NerdyBird · 15/05/2025 21:07

So sorry @Stickygloop sending you strength for tomorrow and the coming days. I have recently lost my DH suddenly at a young age, if you want to DM at all xx

zenai · 15/05/2025 21:09

You may not pray, you may not have any religion, but I think we all need something at a time like this, something to hold on to, to comfort us, to make some sense of it all, although there is no sense to it.

I pray. I'm not religious in the sense of attending any church, but I believe in calling out to someone. You may not, and that is fine, I will pray for you and your family, and especially your darling husband, that you will all find some peace eventually.

I'm so sorry.

Thirteeneggs · 15/05/2025 21:09

Hugs and love to you and your children.

Bimblesalong · 15/05/2025 21:10

Marylou62 · 15/05/2025 21:15

I wish I was on your train to give you the biggest hugs and hand you tissues. I'm so very sorry for you and your DC...

Todaywasbetter · 15/05/2025 21:16

when you hold his hand he will know its you.

Bookloveruk · 15/05/2025 21:16

Lots of love to you all.

YesHonestly · 15/05/2025 21:17

I am so, so sorry that you and your family are going through this.

I have no words that could come close to offering any comfort, so I will simply send you love and strength for the road ahead and keep you in my thoughts x
