We have 3 kids together and it is tough at times but they are what keeps me getting up every morning. I miss my wife so much as well. If you ever want to talk please feel free to reach out.

Grief is a life season, but it is not a life sentence. Jesus will lean into our suffering because he cares. He’s closer to you than you even know.

I never understood how much I was lacking spirituality until some losses started occurring in my life that have helped me come closer to God.

I realize this may not be for everyone and that's okay. But silence and prayer have really helped and made me a stronger person today than I ever have been. It doesn't mean that I don't screw up - I still do - I am human and I always will, but I now know that I have a support system in place and it starts with the man upstairs and giving thanks daily for the wonderful opportunities I still have in front of me.

This is heart breaking, but I am glad you are taking it one day at a time and you seem to be going in the right direction (I don't know if that is the right saying for this), but thank you for posting this.

And speaking of CJ McCollum, what are you expecting the Pelicans to do Wednesday?

The wife and I use to have season tickets to the Pels. My son and have have gone to a few games this year. I think we take care of business against the Thunder. Hopefully we don’t have to play the Lakers in LA for the 8th seed.

Thanks and many back to you and your family. It's not a club anyone should have to belong to, regardless of age. I think one of the things I worry about is the fact that we couldn't have kids so I don't have that factor as something to lean on and distract me. I'm just hoping and praying it won't be complete loneliness when the time comes.
