FUCK my life.. This blows.

I miss discussing the taboo topics, not having to sensor anything, grocery shopping, watching sports together. He is from Cleveland so it breaks my heart he was never able to see them win a championship! I keep saying "watch, now the Cavs will win the championship and the Browns will make the playoffs" because let's face it, if the Browns make it to the playoffs it's almost like Cleveland winning a championship hahaha! Oh yeah, and our banter since we cheered for different football teams. It's going to be hard this season!

Jen, the nurse actually told me they were giving him that to break up the clot.. I guess it didn't work. I think they were just too late..

My cousin made this tribute video for Dave, too! I love it and watch it when I'm feeling sad. And she is just beyond talented.

After reading everyone's posts today I realized that I felt like having my ring on made part of me feel like Dave was going to be coming back. It hasn't even been 2 months yet but I moved my rings to my ring finger on my right hand. I have been wearing his on my right middle finger since he passed away and I felt this weird weight lifted off my shoulders like it was the first step in truly realizing he isn't coming home. I felt comfort in seeing his ring next to mine, like it symbolizes me and him. It's like we are sitting next to each other. Grant it, I had only been married 26 days and engaged for 5 months before that so I was as used to having it on my hand. I felt like moving home and seeing people I haven't seen in years I almost had to prove to people I am was married. Most of them don't even know we got married because we ran away to a court house and kept it a secret until after our friend's wedding. We had just announced it publicly the week before he passed. I did replace my rings with my claddagh ring so I do have a little comfort in having that on still. I can always change my mind. We'll play it by year I guess.

Hello, I'm going to do this a little different. It's just easier this way for me... My Name: Katie Soulmates Name: David Together: 6.5 years Met: In college when we were 19 Married: 26 days Died: Unexpectedly on June 24th from a pulmonary embolism The last 10 months of my life have been a roller coaster. November: I found out my husband (boyfriend at the time) was getting promoted and we were moving 5 hours away to Indianapolis. Days later my grandparents died just over 24 hours apart (after about 75 years of marriage). December: My younger sister gets engaged & I get mad/jealous because Dave and I had been together longer, and we are older January: We move to our new home in Indy. Dave proposed right when we walked into the house (which he had planned since the moment he found out about the promotion). May 29th: We decide to run off to the courthouse and get married -- We didn't need witnesses.. it was Me and Dave. It was perfect June 21st: We decided we wanted to start trying to have kids June 23rd: Dave left for Muncie, Indiana on business (3 hours from home) June 24th: Dave called to let me know he was going to check himself into the hospital (He had been having shortness of breath since the day before, which I chalked up to allergies or seasonal asthma) - He called me again to tell me what hospital he was in and let me know they just did an EKG and it came back normal. - The nurse called me to tell me he was having a CT scan for blood clots in his lungs - On my drive to the hospital they asked me to pull my car over so the doctor could tell me Dave had passed away after being in the hospital for 3 hours. June 29th: Our 1 month anniversary was also David's funeral July 1st: I moved back home with my parents after 8 years of being on my own (well, at school/with David). We live in a 3 bedroom ranch with 4 adults, 4 dogs, and 3 cats. It's about as fun as it sounds lol I hate my life.. ugh..

Me & Dave as well as Dave with some of his fraternity brothers
