I’m so sorry for your loss and that you’re feeling that way. I lost my Mum 9 weeks ago, suddenly and unexpectedly so I can understand the shock and the trauma that you are going through.
You’ve done the right thing posting on here. I have found it very helpful, and have found a lot of support, comfort and even love from others who are going through similar experiences.
Just be kind to yourself and take it all one step at a time. It’s so overwhelming at first, but you will get through it, even though everything seems so difficult right now.
Sending you strength and hugs.
So sorry for your loss. I lost my husband 9 weeks ago. We were only married for 11 days, he had an unoperable brain tumour. The loss i feel is unbearable. 9 weeks prior to losing my husband i lost my Dad.

Many thanks for all your messages of support
Same here. With my husband since I was 19. Great long marriage! I loved my old life and hate my new one without my soulmate.

It’s really hard to adjust to being on your own. I have started to feel a bit better since I’ve started going out shopping ect.

Sorry for your loss l losses my husband in October this year been married 55 years he was my best friend and my rock so l know exactly what your feeling 
it’s ripping me apart but l have got grown up children
Sorry for your loss
Thankyou for your reply, I also have grown up children, they are good support, but I feel like I have to put on a brave face when im so broken inside, my husband was my best friend, my rock and we did everything together, we didn’t really have friends although we used to go out to socialise, its all gone now and im just lost
Sorry for your loss, I know its heartbreaking
Yes it’s showing a front daughter ring me every morning at 10am she lives 10 miles away but she do call every weekend my son lives 10 mins he rings and youngest daughter Lisa 15 mins she call in most days when they ring or call l keep saying lm fine but far from it but they are grieving to
Its nice to have family support, my children dont live near me but they do ring me and I go to stop with my daughter for the weekend they are about 20 miles from me, its an hour drive, I try to look ok for them but inside im broken and its so hard putting on a brave face all the time.
I am so sorry for your loss and understand completely how you feel .I am so glad you have family support , as I know how helpful that can be . I would lost without my son and daughter in laws support . They have done so much for me . Christmas is fast approaching and is going to be a tough time for us all
Its coming up to a terrible time of year for all that are grieving, i definitely wouldn’t know what to do without family support. So sorry for your loss too, its so quiet snd lonely in the house on your own .
Yes it’s certainly very quiet on your own . I have 2 dogs for company . In the first month , the dogs got me out of the house.As they needed there walk . My grandchildren helped me put the Christmas tree up at the week end . Christmas will be different this year .
