Hi @Kate51 I know how you feel as lost my husband suddenly at Christmas just gone. He was 53 years old and we just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. Life is so unfair and cruel. I have been struggling with all these bank holidays and the sunshine as doesn’t match my mood. We were meant to be going to Cyprus tomorrow. Are you going to see a counsellor or have support from family and friends. It is so hard and a new life that we were not prepared for. Take care and big hugs xx

@Kate51 yes it is so hard when friends haven’t lost their partners. They try to help but will never know how you feel and maybe not for years. I have a few single friends which helps though still don’t understand how I feel. This life is definitely shite. Miss my husband so much :disappointed_relieved:xx

Hi Kate
So so sorry to read your post about to our chemo . I’m glad it went well.
But that must be so hard to deal with.
Nothing compared to you but Ivr got to have a little operation on two of my fingers in June (remove some cysts non cancerous)
It’s just so horrid doing these things without the support of the only person you want with you.
I’ll need general anaesthetic - the worst part was having to write a name in next of kin- that wasn’t my husbands :disappointed_relieved::disappointed_relieved:
I put my best friend xxx

I think you can still call yourself Mrs. if you want to. I have never used it as I opted to stick with my own name when we married. I have always used Ms.

You are a Mrs. I will always call myself Mrs. It was the proudest moment of my life changing from Miss to Mrs.
The thing I can’t my head is the word ‘I’ - hate that word so much.
So still use ‘us’ or ‘we’ including our dogs…

The other word I hate is widow. Some legal things like insurance you have to list that as you marital status … A few weeks ago I had to do that for the first time when car insurance was due.
I almost lied cos I still wanted to tick married :sob::sob:
It’s all these things that make our grief unlike any other loss. No other loss changes your identity does it!! xxx

Hugs to you all :hugs::hugs:
