I am so sorry, it still feels so unreal. still cant seem to focus on more then a few days ahead but walking round Tesco or boots, seeing all the Christmas stuff coming out. stopping myself when I see something she would have liked… oh yeah, I’m sure your daughter will take great care of you.

This will be our first Xmas without my husband, who passed away 8 weeks ago following a sudden shocking diagnosis of cancer and losing his battle just 6 weeks later. Xmas was our favourite time as a family with our 3 children 9,16,19 I just don’t know how we’re going to get through it and I already feel full of sadness and lowness at the ‘festive’ season

I am so so sorry, Melissa had Breast cancer she was 44. we had 9 month before she passed, its been 10 months. everything thing seems a world away but so close too. The lowness never seems to leave me, my advice is try and keep it simple this year. remember the warmth you all had together and love. my heart goes out to you and your kids

So many things bring back so many memories .at least we are lucky to have them .but it wont ever replace them .some people go a lifetime without knowing the love we had for our partners .the cherish memories we have of them .

Me and Melissa had 25 year of mostly bliss, so many memories with silly little things setting me off, like finding her hair brush in my coat, we was lucky to have such deep love, I think in all that time we only spent 12 weeks apart.

So young! It’s so unfair! Shaun just tuned 40 in July then the 28th our world fell apart! He was our world and I just miss him so so much… we will try and get through it but I know it’s going to be so heartbreaking… thinking of you

just read your post, its too young and so cruel. I keep saying the same thing, as long as I’m trying I’m winning. Melissa was my world and now I find myself lost, lonely, broken.
we did everything together and never apart. The silence in our little flat is deafening at times, please ask for help if you need it. take care
