I’m Not A Widow…

I’m just married to a dead guy.

I was married to a live guy for 12,189 days.

By about Day 11000, I was starting to think I had some wisdom to share about long-term marriage. About choosing to stay, even when it was hard. About lying in the bed you didn’t expect you were making, and staying true always to the dreams you had on Day 1.
