life is really really short.

Me and my hubby had just been through a week of gatherings and partying. We got home Sunday really really tired, went to bed and totally knocked out without even saying good night with each other. Then I woke up with a loud noise, my brother in law is shouting, my husband was stabbed on the chest.I was in awe,we were just sleeping, he was just beside me, And now he's gone. I was shocked!we were very shocked!nobody wants to believe it. He's been gone for 9 days now, and I can still hear people talking about him saying he's not gone and he's still alive in their hearts. Life is really really short, before we know it our loved one has been called by God. So before the time runs out, hug your love, the one you cherish the most, your parents,your boyfriend, sisters,brothers, bestfriend or love yourself. So you won't feel like you haven't given enough.

OMG. Sorry for your loss. I know that this "story" is very real for you. We all take for granted that this type of thing only happens to other people on the news. You are right in that we never know when that days comes that you won't have another opportunity to tell your loved ones good night, or that you love them. Thats why its so important to live everyday like its your last day, because you never know when it will be. I pray that you find comfort in this trying time.

Thanks for the prayers, I am very very depressed but I'm trying to keep myself up because I have to be strong for him. I know he's happy now that he has the chance to be with me all the time. He is now my guardian angel.

im sorry for what happened to you, but you are right, life is short and people should enjoy every moment of it, otherwise they will let it slip away without even knowing.

It is true what you said, completely. Life is really short and we should always hug our nearer and dearer ones before it is too late. I was really sorry to hear about your husband, and I hope you find the murderer soon. I don't know why people do all this? What do they get by committing these sins? Even I lost my Grandfather and before I could even see him last time, he was gone. But your husband will live forever in your heart, and I just hope that his soul rests in peace. He would be missing you too, from a place up above. You are not alone...

thanks for the comfort. I miss him so much that until now, I felt that he's alive. I couldn't believe what had happened and I couldn't accept it. But I always think that he is with me, all the time. And that would make me feel good. I do hope wherever he is,.he's happy with God. God bless his soul.

My condolences to you for the loss of your husband. I agree life is really short. Your story is a little confusing though. If you and your husband were in bed, how did he get stabbed in the chest? Did he get up and go out? Did someone break into your house? I hope that the person who stabbed him is caught and that you will be able to lean on God in order to get through this. God bless you

Honey, I feel so bad for you. I am sure your was a very good man. That is why he was trying to help and defend his brother. I pray that this person will be caught and punished for what he has done. It is too bad that we as a people feel that fighting and taking some innocent person's life is the way to settle their disputes.

Thanks for the prayers. Because I was asleep, the witnesses told me that his brother had a fight with someone,and some said he woke him up, some said, he just went out to go to the bathroom and when he found out what was happening, he tried to stop them and by accident he was stabbed. Was very depressing, knowing that he is the kindest person everyone is talking about. That's why our neighbors couldn't accept or believe what had happened. If I could have known ,I should have said good night to him or said I love you's before going to sleep.

Thanks for the concern. I know my hubby won't be happy if I don't take care of myself as much as he took care of me when he was alive. He loved me so much and so I have to be strong for him. I know I have lots of friends here who are concern and the family and friends around me who's always ready to support in this time of grief. God bless his soul.

nope, my husband was just trying to settle things down between his siblings and the suspect. and so he sacrificed for them. There are many if's and should have been done and not,but we cannot control destiny. It's time for him to go,whether we like it or not. It was very sad and tragic but I would just simply pray that we could get over this trial.prayers to all our loved ones.

Sorry for your loss my thoughts and concerns goes out to you and your family.Did you and your husband know the killer or was this just a random crime?Yes, life is very short and we should thrive to live every moment to its fullest.Once again sorry for you and your family's loss.

we only know the killer by face. That's the irony, my boyfriend was born and grew up in our town and only a stranger who had just lived in our place for quite some time would kill him.There's a rumor that the killer has been hiding in our place coz he already killed two in his town. Very strange but guess I have to accept it, at least we have spent 2 years together. Just cherish the memories.

Oh my God. What a horrible way of dieing. I'm really sorry to hear this aendzie. Please accept my deepest sympathies. But didn't your husband scream out lot when he was attacked by the murderer. Or kind of shake you a bit when he was being murdered? I hope the murderer is caught soon and justice is done to your husband. Please take care of yourself and your family. I'm sure things will get back to normal for you'll in due course of time. We will pray for you and your family as well as your husbands soul. May he Rest In Peace. Amen

it was so sudden, we got home then went straight to bed. We were sleeping when he heard a commotion outside, he went out trying to settle things down,and then the accident happened. I didn't know anything until the brother screamed and before I knew it, he was rushed to the hospital. I just hope the suspect will be caught. thanks for the prayers.

Oh god. Did they find the murderer? Please accept my condolences. I agree that life is really short, we should all live it to the fullest we can. Also we should treasure everyone around us, as we tend not to notice what we have until they are gone. My prayers are with you and your family in these difficult times.

short life I guess. He is only 35, and I spent 2 years with it. I can say that we were happy. so maybe he had a happy life though it's short.
