Hi everyone.

I am very sad because my husband found out this morning that his mother passed away. He is on a plane right now on his way back to Jamaica. The saddest part about it is that he had a ticket to go down for a week on monday. He was just five days short of seeing his mother one last time.

She had been sick with headaches and dizzy spells, but nobody thought she was on her deathbed. She was only 51 years old. I still don't know what she died from.

So, my question is...what should I do? I want to go down and be there for him, but the money just isn't there. I don't have any experience with Jamaican funerals or customs.

Acrow, I'm tearing up as I read this. My husband's mom had the same symptoms on and off. She past away last year at the age of 49...she had uterine cancer that spread every where...I know how you feel about the money and wanting to be there (my husband was not able to go to his mom's funeral)... but he's there and hopefully his family will help him through this. If you want to talk send me a message.

Thanks so much to everyone for your support and kind words. Based on everything I am guessing it must have been cancer. I am at least happy that my husband gets to be around his brothers and sisters for now.

So sorry for your loss and the situation it puts you both in. I don't know much either other than what is called 9 night.... the celebration of the persons life goes on for a few days. Family comes from all around prior to the day of the actual funeral but it is much like what you hear about in the south/New Orleans where there is music and gathering of friends and family...food, drinking...much like how you would expect Jamaicans to be. Not knowing his family structure I can almost guarantee he will not be alone....he will have the support of friends and family so if you just can't make it.....it should be ok. My hubby's grandmother died and he was taking pictures and sending them to me via email of all the family...having me talk to people who I have never met... You can be there for him without being there if there is no way....hang in there.

This is comforting to me. I know he will be surrounded by family and he knows I am thinking of him and I am just a phone call away.

oh he is cute mon!!!.. LOOKS younger than 27, but then again i look younger than 30

YOU GO GIRL!!

Quana, you should see him in person!! He looks 12!! LMAO but then again I don't look 35!!

I think I will encourage A to do it...because I don't like the fact that as a permanent resident, they can still be deported. No one wants to think that something bad might happen..but I don't like thinking that my husband of twenty odd years can be taken away on a technicality.

The good thing is that Jamaica is a country that will recognize dual citizenship. I want to get my Jamaican citizenship this time around. I just never got around to it with my last marriage.

I had a small disagreement with A because his sister posted some pics of them dropping their other sister off at the airport, and I noticed that A didn't have his wedding band on. I didn't agrue or yell at him, but he knew I was upset because he can automatically sense my moods. He told his sister about it because she overheard him talking to me about it. He apologized and told me that he just forgot to put it on that day. Well, his sister sent me a message on FB telling me that she understands my point but not to be mad at him. She said that he is taking me being upset about it very hard...that he can't stop talking about me and he loves me so much. She asked me not to be mad at him because she forgets to put her rings on all the time. Then, she told me that she has my back because she believes in our love 1000%.

I'm upset because A NEVER put his ring on with his ex-wife...and he told me it was because he didn't love her. Am I making too big a deal out of this? He said he will just get in the habit of putting it on before his other jewelry...so he doesn't forget. I'm still upset. On the other hand, I feel like I am sweating the small stuff. The symbolism of the ring is important to me...even though I know it won't stop a man or woman from doing what they want to do. How do you guys feel about the wearing of the wedding band?

Andre never took his off. You see where that got me.

A friend of mine, the fireman, never wore his cause of his job. It didn't help in his relationship.

So, does it matter? IDK. For me, I think it's important that he would wear it. I don't see a whole lot of reasons to every take it off. You can wash the thing, you know. If it were around some heavy equipment or something for his job, then, yeah, I can see not wearing it.

It is just a symbol, though, Jawi. I think maybe you might be reading too much into it because of his history. Talk it out.

Jawi,

I too would be very upset with my husband if he didn't have his wedding band on! More so because of the reasons on why he didn't wear it in his first marriage. I think that I would feel like he didn't love me either!
