Janet
I'll never hear her laugh again
Nor see that lovely smile.
I held her hand as she breathed her last.
I cried and cried and cried.
Nor see that lovely smile.
I held her hand as she breathed her last.
I cried and cried and cried.

Thank you, Betty and Ms_LaCarte, for your kind comments.
Darling Janet and I had loved each other for over fifty years. It was heartbreaking to watch her slow decline as that cruel illness sucked away her life.
She had been, incidentally, a very successful academic at the university with an international reputation for her knowledge and expertise. She is widely missed.

It doesn't get any more honest than this, Ammonite. My deepest condolences for your loss. May the memories you share fill the emptiness of the difficult days to come.
A professor I knew named Patty just passed away Aug 01. I think of all the lives that she must've touched through her academic career.
