Very sad



Josh Putignano on Instagram: "I hope that this will be the last depressing thing I’ll post here, but I hope to all of you that read this, you understand the intense level of grief I’m experiencing with the passing of my Joey (@sobernursejoe). We had a visitation with him yesterday to see his physical form one last time before he was cremated. To my surprise, they completed that process and I was able to bring him home this morning. I am relieved to have him home but to have my husband, someone that I was attached at the hip to for 10-years, I am still hurting so very much. Now, through so many tears, I’ve finally got to tackle the awful and costly, administrative side of things that I must complete. I ask of all of you to make sure you hug, kiss, call, text, write little notes for those you love often, if not daily, because in an instant, you or they can be gone. That’s the one thing I take solace in, is Joe and I did this all the time, so we know how truly and deeply we love each other. Sleep strong, my love. It’s embarrassing to ask, and I would never under normal circumstances, but any monetary assistance anyone can provide will be so helpful, until I get back on my feet and especially now with the loss of Joe’s income. https://gofund.me/05da63d6 To everyone that has donated, words cannot express my heartfelt gratitude. I’ll be reaching out to all of you in the coming weeks as I try to get a handle on life again. #rip #acrobaddict #joeputignano"

How did he pass?

He was a heroin addict, he got recovered and wrote a book called ACROBADDICT.
Apparently it was a overdose from a relapse.

To My Soulmate…
I can’t believe you’re gone. My amazing, beautiful soulmate Joe, is no longer here in physical form. As the husband of an addict in recovery, I came to realize that the demon of addiction is a constant battle you’d have to fight daily. Sadly, it saw a moment of vulnerability. That demon seized it, and took you away from me. While I slept, you left me, Pasta and Shadow yesterday. I’m devastated that you’re no longer here to keep me company; for me to be your co-pilot with PS5 games; to see the joy in your eyes when you played with Pasta and Shadow. Our years of deep talks, long hikes and walks, going to the gym, our amazing vacations we took, the several leaps of faith to live in new places; getting you through the hell of your accelerated BSN degree program. We did so very much, my love, and now, what am I supposed to do?? I need you Joe, and now I’m all alone. I now lay in an empty bed, that I can smell your scent, where you used to hold me tight when we talked about everything on our minds, watched movies and TV, and made mind blowing love. I wrap myself in your robe after I shower to be surrounded by your smell, for the brief moment of respite from my immense grief and I imagine and feel you hugging and holding me so very tight.

Very sad the people who are left behind to pick up the pieces. Hope the husband finds some peace in time.

Sad ending to his story and a reminder that addiction is a life long battle.
