I actually had a dream, when we were looking at getting married, she recalled.
It was like he was resurrected.
Thank god youre back!'
And that has nothing to do with it.'
It was like giving a blessing."
I got a lot of flak its like, How dare you.
Go ahead, tell me just because I lost my husband that I dont love him anymore.
Swayze died at 57 in 2009, two years after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
The couple previously married in 1975 and were together until he passed.
Because I’m a buck up kinda girl.
I can take it.
‘This is not loneliness I’m feeling, I’m dealing with grief.’
But it was so wonderful when he came into my life."
I felt like I was already married, in a way."
And Im here to love you now.
As for those who wonder how she could forget about Patrick, Niemi laughed, Are you kidding me?
