Dear GhanaWeb,

My wife was involved in an accident four years ago. Unfortunately, she couldn’t make it.

She was someone I loved dearly, and I haven’t gotten over her. I don’t think I can ever get over her. I keep missing her daily.

We were married for three months when this happened. You don’t expect me to move on so quickly.

The accident was a bit severe. Some parts of her body disconnected while some crushed entirely. It wasn’t something anyone could recover from.

So we laid her to rest in pieces, not entirely, but the majority was in pieces. A memory I can barely get out of my head.

The worst pain I wouldn’t even wish for my enemy is what she went through before taking her last breath.

I kept an arm of hers. It’s been frozen since her demise four years ago in my freezer. Once in a while, especially when I miss her, I go for it and spend some time with it.

I didn’t tell anyone I had it. I joined the family to search for it before we gave up and decided to bury her without one arm. I just wanted a part of her with me, and I think that has been helpful.

I am preserving it very well. We had no child, she left me with nothing to remember her with, so I think the arm is all I've got.

Anytime I see her in my dream, she’s actually without the arm, and I don’t know if that could mean something. I feel maybe she misses me, too. How do I return it to her grave, even if I want to? It’s been four years.

Again, should anyone find this arm in my custody, will I be in any form of trouble for keeping my deceased wife’s arm?

I just can’t move past the memory of her. She’s the best woman the world has ever had.

I want to put measures in place, and if I need to consider letting it go, I may start embracing the idea. I need your suggestions, please.
