OB, so sorry for your loss. I knew nothing about Huntington’s disease until my Mother told me years ago that she knew that she could be a carrier, but tested negative, much to her relief. I imagine that she suffered somewhat, knowing that she might have passed this along , but nothing like your lovely bride did. God bless you Sir

I never met you or your wife but have seen many posts from you. I am really sorry for the loss of your beloved wife and partner in many memories. Sending prayers for you in your difficult hour. She will be waiting when it’s your turn to cross over to paradise. After the care you gave her during her fight I truly believe that there is a very special place reserved for the care takers.

So sad, keep strong.
I never knew your wife Jodi, but I have a sister Jodi and I dated a gal named Jodi, so this hits hard close to home.
My starter wife (we were married 2.5 years, no kids) re-married at age 24 and had 3 kids, and she died at age 44 of melanoma, sad.

How did you meet?
Sept 1999 i first saw her at a mutual friends wedding she was alone. i was with a girl i had been dating for 2 years but we would wind up breaking up less than a month later. I asked the Friend who was the girl at the wedding with the blue dress and the beautiful smile. She was stunning! Our friend said "oh no! you 2 are complete opposites. No way would that ever work out" Well we went on a few group dates and then a few just us dates. 5 year later in 2004 we got engaged while apple picking
How long married? We got married in june of 2005. rained all morning and then the sun came up and it was hot. It was an outdoor wedding near washington crossing pa. We celebrated 20 years a few weeks ago
What was her favorite food? chicken and more chicken. sweets and more sweets |
