Ann, so sorry to hear this.
All of us here are devastated and heartbroken that we have lost our partners. My Jackie passed 17 weeks ago and I struggle every day. I’ve seen my GP and tried a couple of antidepressants, and sleeping tablets, but couldn’t get on with them.
The best things I have found are sessions with an NHS bereavement counsellor and chatting here.
So please look after yourself. It’s not going to be easy, but we all can learn to live with our heartache.

AnnGal, I have been there having lost my Darling Elizabeth, back in April 2024. It does get easier to manage the grief. Yes I will always love and miss my Elizabeth. I can now remember a happy occasion about our lives together without bursting into tears. I am getting some good days where I enjoy other peoples company. I try and think of a happy memory, or something positive that has happened recently. I know this will sound daft but I feel the Elizabeth has told me it was ok that I did not go in the ambulance so could not hold her hand. And it is as though she has said sorry for leaving but we will catch up. I always seem to go back to this " Time cannot heal a heartache, nor stop a silent tear, or take away the memories of one we held so dear". I grab hold of those happy memories, and now I do not feel so sad when I remember them. Of course I still get caught out and shed a silent tear but I am managing the grief better. Be kind and look after yourself. Sending you a huge hug like from your brother.
