Uhm... wow???? mead you didn't have to do this... thank you. And everyone else... I'm crying right now that this even went beyond the topic and moderation, I was just gonna leave it to that. All of you are good people, and I will never forget the concern or compassion shown here...

I'm going to post my two post intro from my other topic, just so people know what I wrote (it took me like 20 minutes to type all of this out...)

If I can never repay this kindness to all of you, I hope to at least pay it forward in my actions while still here on this Earth. And I hope God and the universe sees your selfless actions. Even if it's just kind words. I mean, even just Foxx reaching out to me touched my soul, and you can't put a monetary value on that.

As most of you know, my wife was violently killed in a wreck on October 3rd of this year (2017.) I didn't want to make this... I don't like asking for money in most cases. My friends had to convince me it was a good idea. I went from 4 incomes to 1 (two of her jobs, and I lost my second job), and these bills are getting terrifying. I don't care about money in the light of losing my soul mate, it's one of the last things on my mind... you can't take it with you when you die, it's just material. Yet, while I'm still breathing, my debt is piling up at an alarming rate. If you want to donate that would mean the world to me, or if you can share it that would be nice. If not, I understand, but it means a lot to me if you at least think of her and myself, and pray for her, myself, and the rest of our family.

LINK: *REMOVED*

(If this is against TOS, I apologize. I looked everywhere and couldn't find anything against sharing this.)

Those of you that don't know what happened, I was on vacation with my wife in Texas to visit her family (fiancee legally, we never made it to the ceremony... but we both agreed that a piece of paper from the US government does not determine if we are married, we were husband and wife under God), and someone in a truck lost control in the rain and hit us head on. I have absolutely no memory of the wreck, both from a serious head injury, and likely from grief and trauma. I was in a restaurant one minute, and in the hospital the next. (Apparently a day or two later.) After slowly coming to my sense enough to realize where I was, I asked the doctor "Why am I in a hospital??? Where am I???" The doctor told me I need to stay as still as I could and that I was in an extremely serious car accident. I had apparently been cut out with the jaws of life while unconscious, and air lifted by helicopter. I demanded to know where my wife was, and the doctor told me we would talk about that in a minute. He later came back with my mother-in-law who was sobbing, and she told me that I was in a car wreck. I asked "Well where is Sabine??? WHERE IS MY WIFE??????" and she just shook her head and cried and said "I'm so sorry, Corey.... I'm so sorry...." and I grabbed her shirt and screamed at the top of my lungs and cried for what felt like hours. The rest of October is a blur, except for a few images. I remember seeing my wife's body laying there in a morgue or something. I said my goodbyes and had an absolute panic attack and started throwing up outside. I slightly remember seeing the wrecked vehicle to get some of my belongings out. I had a similar reaction to seeing my wife's body, because I knew that mangled car of ours was where Sabine had been killed. Our 5-year-old niece was in the back seat, too, and Thank God had only minor injuries... but she was conscious for the whole thing. So she saw my wife take her last breath while unconscious, and she saw me laying there unconscious being pried out of the wreckage and taken to a helicopter. My older brother said to me that he first got a phone call that "Sabine was dead, and you might be." He dropped his beer and ran to his wife and cried for hours, until he got a second phone call saying that "I was alive but unconscious and critical in the ICU." He told me "I don't mean this in a ****ty way, but that second phone call didn't make me any happier. I knew that either way, you had died in that wreck."

http://m.lampasasdispatchrecord.com/news/2017-10-06/Front_Page/Woman_killed_in_US_190_wreck.html#.WkKNJTe1ubL

Not only should I be dead physically (the engine was to the back seat... where we sat was nothing but metal, glass, and blood...), but emotionally I am a shattered human being. I wish I had gone with her, I am angry that I survived.

Every day is a nightmare, and it's getting worse. I can hear her sad cry everywhere I go. I have had very vivid dreams about her. In one dream, she had me fully convinced she was alive. As I slowly became lucid, I said "This isn't real... is it...?" She looked down sad, and shook her head.

She kissed my forehead and said, "I'm just visiting you until you come join me in Heaven." And she smiled at me. I tried to hug her so tight in an effort to "save her", and I fell right through her as she faded like Obi-Wan/Yoda from Star Wars 4/6. In her clothes fell the necklace I have that contains her ashes. I woke up screaming and crying, like I do most nights.

My double vision finally went away around Halloween, and my memory starts forming around then, as well. I don't remember coming back to my home state... I barely remember making the topic here on POTD. My left foot is numb, my left knee hurts (I walk with a slight limp), and I cannot lift anything heavier than an empty water bottle with my left hand. They believe it was because the right side of my brain was injured in the wreck, and it has 0% improvement. I have to find a specialist, like a neurologist, that works on a sliding scale... because obviously money is really bad right now for me. But 0 improvement on using one of my hands is a little scary. I have been attending intense greif counciling. I don't really see the point, (I don't really see the point in anything), but she's nice and I don't mind talking about it. So what's there to lose by talking? I think she's a nice lady and very professional. I may attend group therapy, especially if I can find one for people widowed, but that's a little down the road.

I want to thank all of you for how much love you have shown. I didn't mean to scare anyone with my last topic, and my heart melted to hear that so many of you genuinely cared about me and this horror. I was super suprised when Foxx reached out to me. I've been spending a lot of time staying with friends, or hanging out with friends. I don't like to be alone very often with the extremely loud silence of her (physical) absence. I have shared a laugh and a smile with a few of my good friends since the wreck, but it is akin to two people in The Walking Dead sharing a laugh in a survivors' camp. Yes, it is a beautiful moment between two humans, and I cherish every second with my loved ones... but the world is still dying around me. I don't wish the horror and demons my soul is facing on even my worst enemies.

Thank you for taking the time to read this (and if you shared my GFM, or donated... you are seroiusly just the best.)

Do me a favor, and please... don't take life for granted. Don't wait for tomorrow to tell someone you love them, or to forgive someone in your life... or to apologize to someone you love. Tomorrow may never come. I love you all.

Hang in there man. People will donate to your cause because no one should have to worry about money in a situation like this and should focus on their healing. You're already close to your goal too so maybe you'll get extra to help you for longer. Good luck!

shadowsword87, I think you're literally the only person on this board that actually met my wife, in a manner of speaking. (The three of us played around on StarCraft II from time to time.) Don't feel bad at all. I didn't even want to make the GFM in the first place... I completely understand.

Thats different because a post is hosted on their servers, so they are responsible for what gets posted on it

A gofundme link has nothing to do with gamefaqs
