My Husband passed away on December 20th from cancer we were married for 22 years, no children, soulmates family gone as we were both mid-life babies. I myself was diagnosed in 2021 with ovarian cancer i recurred Fall, 2023 I’ve been in treatment ever since my Husband was diagnosed January, 2024 I navigated my Husbands journey while going thru my own last year although a difficult journey we didn’t leave each others side we blessed to be able to go on vacation and dinners we cherished time spent he was functional with treatment until it came back with vengeance in October 2 months later I brought him home on hospice 5 days later he was gone. I’m a wreck yesterday I cried buckets today was a bit better initially being Christmas it was a blur I’m still going thru treatment I’m treatable no longer curable so that hangs over my head in addition to my heart being shattered I wander around the house lost.it’s too big should I sell it in the spring? So much stuff I don’t know where to begin I have friends and my church but I don’t know how I’m going to go on I’m so lost.
I know how you feel. I lost my husband to sepsis last February. I have good days and bad days. The slightest thing can set you off can’t it. An advert on the telly. A song. Seeing a photo…
I miss Les so much. My kids are great but there is still a huge void where my heart used to be.
Selling up would be hard. All those memories.
There is no answer really. Feeling this way is evidence of how much you loved him. Xx
I lost my husband too after 22 years on 23 November to cancer, i know how you feel, my husband was my life and we spent every day together for the last two years after retirement from the army, now i feel empty inside and alone, I struggle every day without him, the pain is unbearable i miss him everyday
Nothing can prepare you for the pain. My husband of 33 years was everything to me. He made me laugh every day.
They say things will get better but I can’t imagine how or when.
The journey is so unpredictable I’m so sorry for your loss yep the slightest thing I put my hubby’s photo on my phone screensaver I may have to rethink that right now as I cry every time I see it could be too soon. Your right if we weren’t blessed to have loved it wouldn’t hurt so much.
I am so sorry for your loss the same every moment was spent together was the other half of myself I agree the pain is unbearable I wouldn’t want him back they way he was in the end but at least he was in the next room.
I agree no preparation for the pain my Husband was the same made me laugh everyday woke up happy I so miss those moments.
