I think I've started a thread one time on TAM. Anyway, I felt the need to start one today.
Y'know, for as hard-a$$ed as I sounded about my husband, I truly loved him. I realized, five years ago, that I had to love him at a distance.
He lost his government job in July. Apparently, according to the coroner's office, he was evicted from his apartment in October. On November 7, he moved into another apartment.
He rarely ventured outside. Most of the boxes weren't even unpacked. The police found receipts from the local grocery store. The only purchases were alcohol. No food.
Addiction is a hard task master. It took my husband away from me. He had multiple opportunities to choose sobriety. Both his best friend and I went to the wall to get him help.
In the end, Lieutenant Colonel Charles _________ chose to die alone in an apartment. No family. No friends. Just his two cats wandering around searching for food and water.
He had been dead for three or four days.
And this will never make sense to me. Hopefully, I will get closure in my own way, in my own time.
