Jimmy & myself
St. Jude, please help me. My jimmy passed away. i was praying every day that he would be okay and we could be together again. i am heartbroken. his stepdaughter is very evil. she told his friend i could come to the celebration of life for him. then she sent me a sickening "sweet" message through his facebook page, that i was not allowed to go, only the "community" can go. i knew most of his friends as we were together 16 years and planning to move in with each again as we had done before he moved to florida. she told me i don't know his "real" life and that it's better i am not involved any longer as "she didn't want to see me hurt". Jimmy and I saw each other every single month since he moved away 13 yrs ago because he bought a business. he would come up every month for about 5 days each month, i would go down 3x a year and spend 3 weeks at a time. it was hard for him to say he loved me but i didn't need the words as by his actions i knew he did. he had a stroke and then his friend told me he had cancer and it was spread throughout his body. jimmy called me at least 6x a day and i did the same with him. always good morning, always goodnight. he involved me with his business. she is now insinuating that i was not important to him as he had a "private life" that i knew nothing about. i take care of feral colony of cats and jimmy sent 6 cases of food every month to me. he bought me a car, every week i would receive another gift from him from amazon or wherever else he saw something he thought i would like, sneakers, clothing, etc. sometimes even funny things. i love him so much. my family who knew him told me to ignore me, she is trying to hurt me and wants me to stay away. i do not believe a man who came up to see me all the time, sent me gifts, called me, trusted me with his business information etc. did not love and care for me. i did not ask for anything from him but she told me she found a few of my things and will send them to me and a little bit of his ashes. i had clothing down there, jewelry, shoes, pictures of us. i purchased bedspreads, decorations for the house, dishes. this was not a one night stand. when he moved to florida i drove down with him and set up the house. my family and friends said to ignore her but it truly hearts. i know he loved me but she is making me feel like i was just one of many; that i did not know anything about him. she never liked me and i only met her once but i was a threat to her and now she is in control. he did not speak to me towards the end as she made him feel i was no good for him and then he couldn't speak but his friend told me he loved me and that he pulled himself away so i would not see him ill. i hope that is true although i wanted to be with him at the end. i am praying for some kind of sign that what she says is not true. that he did love me, she has made me feel insecure. she is an evil person. my family and friends said she is a liar and just trying to mess up my head and be insecure about a love that was long and i that would be ever lasting. please show me something so i can feel loved again. please jimmy, i miss you so much. thank you st. jude. amen
