Find Care & Housing
I am sorry for the loss of your beloved husband, you have my deepest condolences.

You did not kill your husband by asking God to take him home, my friend. He was long suffering, and you were hoping to see an END to it. It was his time to leave the Earth, and that's why he died. It was blessedly fast and that is a wonderful thing.

Being that he'd lost a lot of weight and had been ill for so long, he probably had cancer which led to him vomiting blood. Nothing you did or didn't do caused his death, and hospice only eased any discomfort he may have been feeling.

You were not intended to be at his side when he passed,,,,,,he did not want your last memory of him to be an ugly one, so you were spared that sight.

Please try not to feel guilty or responsible in any way for your husband's passing. You were a wonderful care giver and wife, and I'm sure he was grateful for all you'd done. He is at peace now, in the next phase of his eternal life, where all is well and no more pain exists.

Wishing you peace and Gods comfort in your time of grief.

Very sorry for your loss.

Please, do not beat yourself up. You did soooo much for your husband. Do not forget that. You had to take care of yourself too and that is not something to feel guilty about.

It is not necessary to stay by someone's bedside 24/7, so it is ok that you went home. He was safe. He was being cared for.

He was pretty old, had been failing for what sounds like a long time and sooner or later the end was inevitable.

Be kind to yourself.
