47. Making Plans for When They are Gone
Manage episode 461056954 series 3564371
In this episode, I explore the emotions behind planning for life after your partner dies of a terminal illness. This kind of planning isn’t about wanting your partner to be gone or being cold to their suffering. Instead, it’s a way to find hope, balance your emotions, and imagine a future beyond the pain of caregiving.
I’ll discuss how planning helps you cope, offering an emotional escape and something to look forward to during an overwhelming time. While it won’t take away the grief or pain of loss, it allows you to prepare for a life that still holds moments of joy and rediscovery.
You’ll hear stories of women who found solace in making plans—whether it was creating a bucket list, booking a trip, or envisioning a new chapter, when their husbands were in the final stages of cancer. These plans are not a rejection of love but a way to survive and move forward when the time comes.
