Marie - I am so sorry! CRAP! I read this as I came home from vacation and I have my best friend here in Italy from Seattle and I started to cry when I read this and couldn't stop --- I am so sorry to hear this.
You are so right to hate this f-ing disease! IT SUCKS! It is bad and evil and it is all things that are not good --- I thank god every day I found this group so that I feel like we all have a connection and can try to fight this. We are all warriors and we have to somehow find a way to kick this beast in the back side and win - if only in a small way every day.

You are still winning as the C can never take your joy. It can never take the love that you and Ed have for each other ... this will always be and will never leave you.

The only words of comfort I know to share now is that I lost a soul mate when I was 25 --- sudden and without saying goodbye and this somehow shaped the next 10-20 years, for me, as it changes you forever. I chose to not let it change me for the negitive, but I chose to find some sort of good and I sense that Ed would like you to do this too. Also, I believe we live more than once, so we have more than on chance at this thing we call life... so, that also means we will find our true soul mates again in the next life. So tell Ed you will find him again --- it is only a matter of human years - and you two will love again, I am sure. It helped me many years ago - and I hope it somehow helps you.

I am sending you lots of love and good energy from my little island paradise - praying for you, crying with you.

With love - Karen
