Just been to visit my husband’s grave it absolutely tears me apart will be 2 yrs November 26th ! I talk away to him ,but today i made a promise to try sort some kind of life out for myself ? But dont know how or where to start , but i do know he wouldnt want me to continue just existing like this , my friends still have husband’s so where do i start ?

I still have my husbands ashes at home in the living room next to a photo off us both together
I’m not confident at all so I’m not sure where I will go from here x
I don’t know how I can ever be happy again.
He was my happiness.
I still have Gras ashes in the living room , i dont think I will ever be happy again . Hugs jo xxx
I’m like you - my happiness and my life as I knew it, ended the day Bill passed away. I can’t see it ever coming back.
I’ve just sorted our my funeral plan so if I get “the call” I’m ready - any time - 'cos I really don’t want to be here without him. Together, there was a purpose, now there isn’t.
Its hard all we can do is take each day as it comes , i promised him ill try but im same dont want to be ere im ready to be with my chris but at same time i want to see our 4 grandkids grow up ,2yrs in November ive cried every day for him , he was my life , i wouldnt want to meet anyone else no one could ever come close to him
I agree, I fear I will feel like this for the rest of my life, maybe If I was younger it would be different but I am 67 so rest of my life may not be that long. But I wish anyone with the courage to move on the very best and hope you succeed because life is for living after all xxx
Hi Georgi. I’ll be 74 later this month. My family on my dad’s side have lived into their 80’s - I don’t want that for me. I know my Bill wouldn’t want me to be like this but I’ve just lost the will to carry on without him. I look at his mobility scooter and the tears are there. I drive the car that he really wanted and the tears come because he’s not sitting beside me any more. Every day seems to be getting more difficult to cope with.
I’m 68 this month it will be my first birthday without Steve I’m dreading it
It’s so heartbreaking isn’t it. Sending love and hugs
Yes it was my first birthday without him
in April, all I could think about was the yr before on my birthday I was 8 days away from losing him as he passed on the 1st May, he did manage to wish me ‘happy birthday’ on the day but it was anything but happy because we both knew he was dying & it was just a matter of time. In floods of tears writing this xxx
I agree with all you have said there including the 4 grandchildren as thats how many we have tho the 4th was born only in Feb so will never know his grandad in life but we will talk about him all the time, I already do that!
And yes no-one else could ever take his place xxx
I am 59 Gra was still in hospital when it was my birthday he rang me at 6 oclock to wish me an happy birthday. Hugs jo xxx
Thank you so much Rose xx
Ditto…He was my world…my everything…
It is so hard, I wouldn’t want to live that long either without my husband, cause this now is just an existence not a life at all! We all feel like that whether its men or women but I feel younger ones will be able to move on with their lives in time and rightly so they deserve to be happy again and I would wish happiness for them xxx
My youngest Grandchild is 6 weeks old the day she was born i cryed i told my son it was happy tears i was so grateful and happy for another Grandchild but the tears was because my chris wasnt ere to enjoy her he was one in a million husband dad grandad missed so much
Our daughter was pregnant with our first grandchild when my husband died unexpectedly. He knew it was a girl but never got to see her. Utterly sad about that as he was so looking forward to being a grandad. Our grandchild arrived early due to the shock of our daughter losing her dad. Very sad .
