Hello Sylvia,

I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support. In the meantime, you may wish to look at these Sue Ryder resources which might be helpful.

Thank you again for sharing – please keep reaching out and know that you are not alone.

Take care,

Abi

Hello Sylv!

Losing someone you’ve been with for so long is like losing a limb or a part of your soul. It’s just so agonising. The fact that you have to adapt to a new ‘normal’ and carry on, and at the same time watch other people get on with their lives.

There will be good days and bad days and then some okay days. You’re doing so well; facing the world with grief is very scary.

I’m also assuming that the time spent in the hospice must have been very difficult emotionally. And this can make processing grief that more difficult than it already is.

One step at a time! And the forum is always always here.

Hello @Sylviag so many shared years and memories. It is absolutely ok to miss your husband so much.
It is always difficult dealing with illness/sickness and it can put a lot of pressure on loved ones who are supporting.
Keep posting here and let us know how you are getting on, and it is encouraging to read that you have better days sometimes, I am sure they will increase over time. Best wishes.
