Will there ever be a time when I no longer dwell on this?

Five Months
It was three am that Tuesday morning, April 13th. As was my custom I had rolled the hospital bed over beside the couch where I laid in the evenings...sometimes drifting off to sleep for a while. I just wanted to be where I could touch him, hear him breathe...He had not opened his eyes or spoken for over a week ?? . His breathing pattern had changed that night...short, deep gasp-like...growing further and further apart. As I wept, begging God to take him, please don't leave him like this any longer... he took his last breath. Nicki heard me and came into the room..."he's gone,honey" I said...she called Barbara.... Barbara called our hospice nurse ..they took him away.
