My wife died from cancer in November. We were married over twenty years. Life became despair. I can hardly remember 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016. Photos serve only to realize the delta you don't realize week to week. What a cruel, cruel disease.

My sincerest and most heartfelt condolences, friend. I can't even begin to imagine the horror of such a loss.

From one internet stranger to another: I truly feel for you, and I wish you strength, courage, and ultimately peace.

I wish I could do more, but here's a poem in my native language [0]. Victor Hugo wrote this shortly after his daughter's death. I hope it brings you some comfort.
