My partner of 14 years passed away 3 weeks ago today. His funeral was last monday, my head hasn’t been my own as dealing with the mountain of phone calls and emails to let people and companies know. Now thats all done i feel like i am back in the 1st week of losing him. I feel lost and numb and in limbo again. Really dont know what i am doing most days (on autopilot i guess)
Anyway thank you for reading

I’m so sorry for your loss @Saz-lou
It’s very early days for you.
I understand what you mean, the avalanche of paperwork and funeral arrangements somehow carries us through the first few weeks. And then wham it hits you .
I’m 19 weeks on now and although I miss him terribly and still cry every day I do feel that I am starting to cope.
Please be kind to yourself and take it day by day, hour by hour if you need to. Gradually you will come to realise that you are coping.
Youve done the right thing by coming on here.
We all understand, because we are all going through the same heartbreak and grief, and we all listen and support each other.
Sending you a big hug and caring thoughts x

@Liro thank you so much.
The term avalanche is so very true as it was constant eruptions of calls emails and forms. Now have to wait in limbo again whilst living hour by hour, numb, feeling lost and so low not knowing what to feel just going with it whilst going through the motions of pottering about doing chores, sorting cupboards, just to try and fill the emptyness. I am just so blessed that we were together for 14 years and he didnt suffer or have pain at the end.
I hold on to that every moment of the day. Xx
