Background
As everyone knows, it's been a rough 2 years since Matt died. Losing him was life changing and devastating and changed every aspect of our lives.
Matt was the sole provider in the house. Without his income I couldn't keep up with bills and me and the kids had to move. Aubree went to live with Isaac and me and Aiden went to Shawns. Losing Matt meant losing our home and my daughter. Shawn moved and Aiden and I didn't have an ideal living arrangement until Dec 2019. After months of struggling with car issues, living situations, more deaths, illness and a surgery we finally got our own place and then I had a horrible stroke in my spine and ended up in a coma for several months. I woke up and was told I was paralyzed and I spent 7 months in the hospital until late November and I am now quadriplegic.
Nothing about any of this has been easy. I've lost so much more than what people realize.
I lost my husband yes, but I also lost my future, my best friend, my kids dad, my home, my kids, my dogs, my comfort and safety, my shopping partner, the Santa to my Mrs Claus, my gossip buddy, my shoulder to cry on, my "hey remember that one time" person who knows every memory for the last 15 years of my life, my I can be a pain in the butt and he'll still love me, person.. and my, I will never walk again and he would still be here loving me anyways, person.
