Just Jess...

Hope today is a little better than yesterday. You popped into mind this morning and wanted to share. Big virtual hugs.
 
Hey guys. My husband, @GessoOfJess, passed away unexpectedly this morning. He'd recently had his second leg amputated and had been battling health issues for years. We just celebrated our 20 year anniversary in February. He was 43. He was so supportive of my journey here on lit and it was wonderful to have him be a part of it for the short time he was active here with me.

He had ordered some pretty things for me that he wanted to take pictures of me in. They got lost in transit, and of course, arrived this afternoon. I'll post pics of his beautiful choices soon.

So many of you were so supportive of me while I acted as caregiver, and you made getting through the last couple of months so much easier than when I was alone.

I called him my gesso. Gesso is canvas primer for artists. He primed the world for me and made it livable. He was my best friend and soulmate. Every day will be harder without being able to hug him and hear his voice.
