Gary Howarth, Co-Founder-Record It Cards, Bereaved Husband, Lost Wife To Cancer

In January 2010, I found that the lives of my wife Terri and me will never be the same again.  After two trips to the hospital we discovered that Terri had Stage 4 endometrial cancer.  The doctors removed her uterus and the affected lymph nodes in the area. Suddenly, things that were very important before, no longer mattered.  We ended up shifting our attention from our careers to how we are going to beat the cancer. Suddenly, things that were very important before, no longer mattered.  At times it seemed the treatments were causing as many problems as they were solving.  During May of 2010, things turned bad.  The cancer had spread and she spent over 2 weeks in the hospital and she almost died. Then over the next 3 months she started feeling much better. She still had the cancer, but she was feeling pretty good.This period of time was the lull before the storm. After Terri passed away, there was a long grieving process.  Much longer than I ever expected. I am trying to live my life by living as a bold, open, vulnerable, and abundant man.  These characteristics help me to grow into the person I want to be.
