Question for thought...

I feel the same way you all feel. Losing my mom would just rip my heart out. Don't get me wrong- losing my husband would kill me too. But my mom is my mom and I don't even want to imagine my life without her. She is my rock.

I love my parents and my hubby in 2 different way. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my parents, but I'm IN LOVE with my hubby. I guess I learned this from my parents. They always said that the Lord comes first, then your spouse, then your children, then your extended family, then your career, ect. ect. My parents put each other WAAAAAAAY ahead of their parents in terms of priorities.

i feel the same way...just thinking about my mom dying got me all teary eyed. yes i love my hubby but my mom has been there for me my whole life and he's only been there for eight years. when he went to iraq i was so worried every day that i didn't hear from him thinking he was dead it was esp. hard as he had just lost his baby brother in a car accident like three weeks before he was deployed so the whole family was scared for him.but he made it home safe and i thank god for that everyday!

Wow, your answers surprize me. My mom is gone, passed away in 2000. (Daddy passed in 1995.) I loved her very, very much, and still miss her. There are things that happen that I would like to be able to share with her. I wish she could see how her grandaughters are turning out. She would be very pleased. I understand her more now, as I get older and share some of her experiences, and would like to be able to tell her, to discuss things with her and get her opinion. I have lots of questions that I never asked and would like to now. All this said, my husband is the one who is still here, who supported me through the loss of both my parents. He's my rock. Life without him would be .......I can't put these feelings into words. I am glad I never had to choose, but I believe if I did, I would choose my husband, and I believe that she would have wanted me to.

I agree with you 100%. My mom would want me to choose my husband first, too. I know that she chooses her husband (my dad) first.
