I am so sorry @Jen153 that you have such a sad day today, your husband’s 80th birthday, I don’t think it is strange at all that you bought him a birthday card.
Enjoy toasting him, I’m sure he will be with you.
Best wishes x

Sorry you have had a hard day. It’s not strange at all. My husband died in March and is his 60th on the 30 th July. I had a big 60th one made and had it at the celebration after the funeral and a lot of people wrote in it. I haven’t read it and am going to do so on his birthday. I also already have one which I had bought ready.

Dear Lou33 Thank you for your kind words thats a lovely idea to have a birthday card made for a special day i hadnt thought of that we would have had a big celebration for him as was unable to celebrate his life after the funeral as it was right in the middle of lockdown so i feel doubly cheated. So sorry for your lose it is so hard what we have to go through losing our beloved partners. X

@Jen153 Hi Jen, it is heartbreaking that you couldn’t have a celebration after. The rules for funerals during lockdown were awful. I lost my mum during that time too.
Hope you had your toast to your partner and hope you manage to have some better days x
