l lost my husband on the 19th January 2024 ,and miss him especially in the evenings so i know how you feel.
Hello Pamela,
I do feel for you. I have been widowed twice but when I was younger. Last July I lost my lovely partner very quickly. Life seems so unfair. I have had a hard time but at last I am beginning to get my brain out of the fog that I have been in. I am nearly 80 and my best friend also died a year ago. I am having counselling and that is helping. I have made a couple of new friends and that is also helping and I have also joined a choir and an exercise group. Life has changed so much but we must try to carry on because our late partners would not want us to be unhappy. It is vey early days for you yet so just take one day at a time. Sending Hugs. X Jan44
I lost my husband in November. No, not lost, he died. I am lost, so lost. Its only been this past week that its registered he’s not coming back. My grief is totally overwhelming. I cant see through the fog. My life is upside down. Im having big anxiety issues and just can’t leave my house. Sorry for being so self absorbed but im not. Im husband absorbed
Got to say lost my tina 15.12.23 and here I am still the same can honestly say I don’t want to be here anymore
