Grief doesn’t get easier (By S lister)

Some people are taken from this world far too soon, and nothing about it feels fair.
There’s no warning.
No extra time.
Just one day they’re here and the next they’re gone.
You don’t just miss them, you miss everything that was meant to be, the time you thought you had, the moments that will never come. And somehow, life expects you to keep going even when a part of you went with them.
So you carry them with you in memories, in love, in the quiet moments no one else sees.
Because even though they were taken too soon, they’re never truly gone from you.

I agree with you. In two weeks it will be 11 months since I lost my partner of 21 years. It still feels like yesterday. I still have his phone on the bedside table and his watch…

This Easter feels very lonely just me and my two dogs. I had a phone call from my parents and sister, but it’s not the same. I would normally celebrate Easter with Marek, have some nice cakes and spend time together, but not this year. There’s nothing special about it just a long, quiet weekend.

I think about him every single day. I still say goodnight before bed and good morning when I wake up.

What you wrote sums up exactly how I am feeling. This Easter is the first one without my husband. I have spent some time with my son and daughter in law . Other than that it’s just me and the dog . It’s really quiet and lonely. Look after your self.
