No Poles Today

No Poles today. Just a morning phone listening. Spoke to a 75 year old man who lost his wife a month ago. I can't begin to imagine how dreadful that must be. They had been together for 42 years. He was devastated. He was guilty he hadn't been there when she died. He had gone home from the hospital for a rest. He hadn't felt anything until after the funeral. When everyone had gone home he lay on the bed and cried. Of course he realised that he was never going to be the same. His other half had died.
