Life as we know it

In February 2015 we received the devastating news that my Dad had Stage 4 colon cancer and in April 2015 my brother was diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer. Dad sadly passed away in December 2015 followed by my brother in March 2016 😭. It was only myself and Mom that was left. We were devastated and not knowing how we would carry on without them.

We, unfortunately, buried both of them on our own as my husband (the only son-in-law) didn't feel the need to be present during the burial periods. So you can see why I feel that he is a selfish, inconsiderate man (I could use stronger words but let's leave it at that).

Not too long ago he lost his Mom and I was present for the funeral as a wife and just before Christmas 2020, he lost his Father. Due to the Covid pandemic, I was not present for the funeral.

Fortunately, we never had any kids and for this, I am grateful. Imagine growing up with a father/husband that has no respect for himself, his wife, his pets, or his family. He was the type of man that would only ...
