This just breaks my heart. I woke up this morning with his family on my mind. God give him strength.  She was so beautiful. Dan, she is in Heaven, no more pain.

A post from this afternoon:

 

I am heartbroken and my spirit is crushed. Today I had several panic attacks and have cried until I can't breathe. I know this first year without will be so hard. First Thanksgiving, first anniversary. First Christmas, New Years, her birthday, it goes on and on. But I'm told someday it will slowly get better.💔💔😢

This is so sad.  The raw reality has struck. 

 

I've seen loved ones, people that I've loved my whole life and with all my heart and they look nothing like themselves, they can't acknowledge me and they've let it be known they 'want to go'.

 

You don't want to see them suffer and struggle.  But once they're gone, your mind wants them back in any way, you hurt so bad.

Dan's posts are simply stated, yet I feel his grief when I read them.  Maybe his grief grabs me because I've been where he is right now.  I've struggled to post a condolence message on the blogs because there is nothing I can say right now that will honestly help.  The loss is so catastrophic and his pain is all consuming. 

 

I'm sure many of us have been there in one way, shape or form when it comes to losing someone so integral to our lives.

Re: saddest of news from Dan Wheeler

Posted earlier this morning.

 

I guess my new normal is to wake up crying. My heart has a giant hole in it. My wife, @elizabeth ann Wheeler was not only the Love of my Life but she was and is my hero. My daughters have tattoos on their wrists that say "Faith" and "Hope." Beth's wrist says "Love." She is love and she loved me unconditionally for 37 years. The past 6 months have been difficult. The past 5 weeks unbearable. But these days of planning her life celebration and burial are really impossible as a man. But God is carrying me and my family. "Now abideth faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is LOVE!" I miss you so much my sweet Cakies! (my nickname for Beth).

Re: saddest of news from Dan Wheeler

I was a little taken back by the hosts  ( past and present) who had nothing to say on their facebook pages about Dan's wife.  I have followed his story for a short time, and was so saddened to here about Beth.  Such a kind and generaous man!

Instead of bragging about themselves, you would think they could take a minute out of their day, and acknowledge this wonderful ,brave woman.
