Lost my son in July was sitting in garden having quiet conversation with my partner, when people next door started making horrible comments about me and how my son must be glad he away from me,
Thought I could deal with this but finding it very hard

I am truly sorry, @Sharron70, that is an awful thing to say to someone, or to even think. It reflects badly on them, not on you. I’m sorry for the loss of your son. Thank you for reaching out - I’m someone will be along to offer their support.

Thats so sad and horrible. So sorry.
They obviously don’t know anything about you. Its hard not to get affected. I feel so much guilt and pay too much attention to others and their hurtful words. Like when someone told me, think of the relief or time you’ll now have! They are idiots. Be kind to yourself, sending hugs x

Sharron, that is a truly horrible thing to say and they know you could hear them.
I would write a letter and tell them “I heard what you said about my son being glad he is dead rather than be with me. It was a horrible thing to say and it hurt my already broken heart to hear it. My hope is that you never suffer the pain that I suffer from the loss of a child, as it is unbearable. May God be with you.”
They are jack a88es, but you can rise above while letting them know they are merciless inhuman jerks.
I am so sorry, this would have ruined me for a while.
May peace enter your heart and your home.

Oh yes! The time you will have to do only what you want, when you want, how you want and who you want to do it with. Heard it already as if my husband was an albatross around my neck.
My friend, a widow of 4 years, said “this is the only time in my life that I don’t have to please anyone and do what I want without having to consider anyone else”. She said it is freeing in that aspect, but lonely all the time. She is a hermit in her massive country estate which was built for their extended family to enjoy and she roams the rooms alone. So very sad.
Its all so sad and people are so unkind and mean. I feel so isolated and disappointed by everyone really who we considered friends. Where are they all.
You take care and keep strong
