My wife’s funeral and cremation today I can’t begin to describe how I feel. I went to the funeral home Monday and yesterday to say my goodbyes, I didn’t want to leave her as her body was still here although the soul has gone. I have to learn to live without her now after knowing for 40 years, I feel absolutely empty and lonely. I hope I have the strength to get through this day.

Hi Pete47,I felt exactly the same 4 months ago before my wife’s funeral and didn’t think I would be able to mange the day, but you do find the strength somehow, and your family and friends will help you as well, thinking of you, take care Mickere x
Thanks for your replies, funeral service is this afternoon, my Karen passed away after being diagnosed with lung cancer - from being diagnosed to passing away was only six weeks.

Dear Pete, my thoughts are with you too, I’m so sorry for your loss, I hope you find comfort from your family and friends, sending love, Tracy
I barely remember the day , struggle to remember the music we picked. We later had the family flowers pressed and framed.
Restricted to numbers so we only had the important persons there - we had previously agreed - if they didn’t visit us before why would they want to visit the crem.??
You learn to move on day by day.

Thinking of you Pete. I lost my mum 3 months ago to cancer. It’s heartbreaking. We are supporting my dad to keep him busy. Take each day as it comes.

Hi Pete
By now the funeral will have passed. I hope you found some peace in saying goodbye to your beautiful partner. It’s a long road to feeling better but this is the first step. I lost my husband just over a year ago suddenly in bed beside me and it took a while for me to actually believe it had happened. Do I feel better now ? No not really but I have accepted he’s not coming home and taking each day at a time.
There’s no time limit as to when you should feel a little better. We’ve all been there on this terrible journey. My heart goes out to us all. We don’t deserve this pain but somehow we seem to have been dealt a blow which we will never recover from. But we’ll learn to live with it.
Much love
Georgina
