Hi all my name is Mo I lost my wonderful wife Jen on December 22 2025. She lost her short battle with bile duct cancer, and passed peacefully with her family around. I’m posting this not sure why as I am feeling lost, Jen and I have a 20 year old daughter who is doing well. I feel I am holding myself together for her because I can’t imagine what she is going through. She has taken some time off her university studies since losing her mom, but I am encouraging her to return soon which she told me she will. With me I feel I need to restart my life as Jen and I had planned to love to Scotland 
n 2027 once our daughter had finished university, I now feel I can take her all hat and way, his she agrees with. I am trying to cope with good days and bad days, which I know is normal. I am feeling that I am hiding away, which for me as a very sociable person is not me. I know I need to start meeting new people but am finding it difficult. Thanks this is hard to navigate.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
To have lost a husband / wife / partner really is the most unbearable pain.
My husband if 45 years passed away 3 months ago. The grief is still very raw very present. I know I put on a face for others to see as I keep being told it will get better. I’m not sure right now.
If you can talk to your daughter and share your memories you may find comfort. Your wife remains important to the past, present and future. Take your time. Every day is different. Sending you a hug
Hi Claudie, sorry to hear about your husband he was far too young. My daughter and I spend time together and talk about her mum while watching tv, which is working well. We have talked about what we do next, and are looking at moving and we look at houses and areas together this I feel helps us move on a little. Again I’m not sure if this is the right thing but, we are looking at the future. Thanks for your thoughts and please look after yourself and your family. Mo
Thank you Mo. I’m really trying perhaps too hard at times. Grief is a process of many hills and valleys. I never knew it would be like this. I am blessed to have had such a wonderful husband and cherish every memory as I’m sure you do of your wife. I wish you well for your future with your lovely daughter. Take care
The same for you Claudie, take care.
