Hello Junie
I’m part of the Online Community team and I can see that you are new to the community - I’d like to thank you for bravely starting this thread and sharing how you are feeling. Most community members have sadly experienced the death of a loved one and so will understand some of what you are going through.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support. In the meantime, you may wish to look at these Sue Ryder resources which might be helpful.
- Our Grief Guide self-help platform which has information, resources and advice to help you through your grief
- Our Grief Coach text service, which sends you personalised text support via SMS
- Our free Online Bereavement Counselling which is held via video chat
- Our Bereavement Information pages which can walk you through what you are going through.
I really hope you find the community helpful and a good source of support and I also hope you feel you can access more support should you need it.
Thank you again for sharing – please keep reaching out and know that you are not alone.
Take care,
Rhi
My thoughts and wishes are with you. You will get the strength to carry on, it certainly is not easy and the miss will always be with you. I am approaching my husband’s death one year ago and at the moment things seem worse but hopefully once the first anniversary is over and Christmas I hope for you and me things will improve. I found speaking to a Counsellor at the Hospice a great help and felt I was really coping but this past month has been hard but I am sure that nothing lasts forever, as we had discovered, so hopefully this pain will ease. Please remember you are not alone 
. Keep busy even if you do not feel like it and never say no to an invitation.
