    Aww shit. I have a health condition so my wife is extremely likely to outlive me, probably by decades. I should start recording videos for her.

    Or should I? I want her to move on after I go and I don’t want to interfere with that. Dying sucks.

      She can always decide to not listen to them. However, when you don’t make them she would have no other option. I think the recordings would be a very nice idea. Maybe even video.

        I think video is a great idea. I’m going to do one a day, just about what has been going on, five minutes or less. I also need to start keeping a dairy diary, so this will knock out both at once.

        Edit: I am not a rancher.

      She loves you. She will always love you. The other people in her life that love her will need to love her loving you. She’ll move on, but she’ll always carry you with her. Make the videos

        Dammit, now I need to explain to the other people I’m at dinner with why I’m crying. Thanks, you’re right and I needed to hear this.
