I’m 8 months in and things are getting harder. How can that be?
My darling husband of 45 years went to work one day and did not come home.
Just like that. He had a heart attack. No previous heart problems. He was still working full time, even though he was 71, but still gorgeous. He loved his work and worked away from home regularly. So looking after the house and paying bills, looking after my car, and the dogs, putting the bins out, changing a light bulb, investments, I did it all. Took it in my stride. But at the end of the day it does not make a scrap of difference.
Okay, I can do stuff but I want my husband back and the pain to go away…I WANT MY LIFE BACK…Why was he taken…It was WRONG.
I am completely broken. I can put one foot in front of the other, and thats it.
Is there any point?

@Fantazey I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m only 7 weeks into losing my wonderful husband at 56 so I’m not sure I have a lot of advice to give, other than take a day at a time and I’m hoping this pain will ease a little. Do you have family and friends around you? Please take care of yourself and know that you’re not alone, reach out on the forum whenever you need x

I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my partner 4th January. At the moment I function. Day by day. That is all I can do. I cry alot usually just randomly. I miss him I want him back but not in the pain he was. It’s not going to happen. I talk to him I kiss his photos. It is so very very hard. I feel for you love. I hope it gets easier for us all I really do. X
