That is so true. Memories are painful. people say “Oh you have lots of wonderful memories” What a trite phrase to trot out! Memories of 56 years of knowing my lovely husband and his loss i find too painful and heart breaking. Nothing really helps the anguish. I have moved house and area to be nearer to my two sons at their encouragement but the memories have come with me and it feels like a double grief now… losing him last year and now a new and strange area to get used to. I keep thinking what would he think to see me here and not in our home but somehow i hope these feelings will eventually subside. Just miss him so terribly and the home we made together but I’m here now and somehow must find the initiative to carry on.
