My sincerest prayers are with your family now and in the days to come. My husband was also injured in a house fire and spent 58 days in the hospital fighting for his life before he passed away leaving behind myself and two children. No one knows what it's like to watch someone who you love so very much fight to live and all the heartaches and questions that come from that experience. As the spouse I know I questioned every decision I made on my husband's behalf and still do sometimes. Just please know that there are people praying for your family and willing to listen if you need to vent. I have never felt the support and love I experienced from others when my family went through our tragedy. It was a tremendous blessing from above. I know you don't know me but my name is Sharen Hill and if you ever need to talk or vent or just cry and pray Lanette knows how to get in touch with me. I don't know what I would do without my friends and family but sometimes you just need to talk to someone who has experienced something similar or who can listen to you without fear of making the people close to you worry. Believe me..I have experienced every emotion from anger to severe grief and I understand just a little bit of how life changes so dramatically with an unexpected loss. Your husband and your family are to be commended for his service and the sacrifices made to ensure the safety of others. It takes a very special heart to be willing to do that as a firemen and as a firemans family. Lots of prayers for your special family. Heaven be with you ever step of the way
