Losing my husband

My husband, North Star, home, lover, best friend for 45 years died 20 days ago. I miss him more than words can convey. I feel like I’m drowning in grief.

I’m so sorry, that like the rest of us, you find yourself here. It is very early for you and will be very raw. Drowning in grief is a good description. Just hang on to any support you have, and to what you find here. All you need to do for now is manage to stay afloat. Anything more is for well into the future. Congratulate yourself for getting out of bed when you do, for showering, for eating if you manage it.

Keep reading here and posting. What you are feeling won’t get better for a long time I’m afraid, but you will begin to make sense of and accept how you feel.
