I’m struggling to process the loss of my parents. Both passed very soon after each other
I have just heard yesterday that happened to a lady and her husband that the same thing happened. I was very sad thinking of her family. Also I had known her at church for as long as I can remember.
My parents died at the same age as each other but dad died 20 months before mum. But it could have happened almost at the same time.
I am so sorry that you have the double loss all at once. I can’t imagine it must be so hard.
To feel an orphan at any age is shattering.
My husband died 18 months ago and worry as I feel old how my son’s will cope. 
for you that you will find the strength and comfort you need. Hugs

I lost my Mum 2.5 years ago and my Dad a year ago yesterday!
The best thing I ever did after my Dad passed away was ask for ‘Help’!
You are not alone, grief will effect your MH, it’s ok to have a cry and it’s also ok to smile when a happy memory of your dear Mum & Dad happens - and I promise you this will happen.
A memory of a Sporting match from years ago came up yesterday
! That my Dad and I had attended and bought back Happy memories for me on a sad day,
It’s good to talk, use this community, talk to friends, ask your GP for help and ask your GP surgery if they have a Social Practitioner who you can talk to and maybe put you in touch with local bereavement groups.
Take care and be kind to yourself
