Hi Alice,
Thank you for your kind message,
Only who has lost beloved partners will understand what is grief pain is like.
My dear husband and I used to do everything together,
We used to love going to John Lewis’s Brent Cross Once a week to have tea and scone.
I didn’t realise how ill my beloved husband was until he died right in front of me, In his bed.
He didn’t want to go to hospital, Or go to the hospice.
Now I realise you never wanted to die anywhere else but at home with me.
I am also very, very happy that he died at home.
I was not willing to go anywhere leaving my home which we shared for 45 yearsI want to children grown-up in the house
My beloved husband passed away in September and i miss him so much. I have also put my decorations up but i can’t write out any cards with just my name. I feel so lost when the world is carrying on as normal and i dont know what normal is for me. You just have to do what is best for you.
My husband died last sunday off the back of our 18 year old dying in July, christmas was already just something we wanted to do for our other 2 boys, we were going away because the memories here are too hard and now we feel we have just been floored all over again, we cant have his funeral until jan 11th because of christmas and new year, we’re in limbo after having already been to hell. We were just starting to learn to move forward, how do my children ever get past this grief. X
My heart goes out to you. I lost my mum at Christmas time years before my husband this April. It is the most difficult time and everything stops for it and New year. Your grief will be unbelievably hard to bear. I cannot imagine how you feel. I always have a listening ear should you need to talk. xx
Hi Hassina

st trying to tell myself that i have been so lucky to have had my husband for 40 years some people will never have that, but i miss him so much it hurts and i dont think that will ever go away. I am glad we can write on here our true feelings as i know you will all understand and that makes me feel a little less lonely, take care everyone x
