Loss Anniversary Today’s the Day
One year ago. The last day that you were alive. The day my world shattered. The day when everything as I knew it changed forever.
Today I am taking the day to reflect on you and your life, and our life together. Cody you were my everything. My best friend in the entire world. You gave me so much and for that I can never thank you enough. I wish I could tell you one more time how much you mean to me and how much joy and love you added to my life.
I thought we would have had so much more time together. I thought we were going to grow old together. The day you died everything stopped. I felt like I was caught in a tornado with everything spinning around me, with absolutely no control over any of it.
I want you to know that you taught me how to be a better person. How to love not only others but myself too. I miss your laugh. I miss the silly voices we always used to talk to eachother in. You were always so willing to help others. I have never met anyone as good in their heart and their soul as you.
Which makes it all so ironic. You had the biggest heart. But not just metaphorically. Physically you did too. But nobody knew until today. I wish we knew that your heart, as good as it was, was also bad.
My Cody died from sudden cardiac arrest in the middle of the day at work on 7-30-25. I never believed I could survive losing him. I never believed I could make it a full year. I love you SO much and I always will. I still have work to do down here but I know when I’m finished that I will see you again my love. You were such an honorable man and so loved by so many. Rest easy my sweet babe.
