My partner passed away 2 and half years ago now very unexpected and suddenly he was only 36, we had been together 18 years and we have a little girl together who is now 6. I just cant still get over the fact he is no longer with us, i feel back to square 1 of this grief process. Its so hard without him.

Bless you sweetheart, my youngest is 16 but 6 is no age to lose your Daddy. Barry died 3 months ago at 52 years it’s so unfair and unexpected. We are all struggling to cope our emotions change from heartbroken to angry within seconds. We all feel so cheated. Please reach out if you want a chat. Sending cuddles X x xq

Just awful, does she talk about her Dad? Does she look like him? Its so dreadful that you have had to go through this horrific time but thank goodness you have her because you have a focus and have a beautiful reason to get up everyday. My heart breaks for each and everyone of us. Lots of love X x x

Yes we talk about our memories daily, as i fear she actually wont remember him with her been so young. Yes she’s like his twin everything about her is just like him.
We have only just got the outcome from coronors court too which doesnt help. An i feel there decision is wrong.
Just feel quite jealous of others which sounds mad because am not a jealous person, but i find myself lonely even thou i have family and friends its not the same and they don’t understand.
Such pressure trying to be the best Mum i can be whilst also grieving and be there for her and make sure she has the best childhood that i can provide.
Financially its so hard 2, going from 2 incomes to 1. An breaks my heart when she says my friends are going on real holidays in the summer it kills me that i cant do that for her.
Sorry for the essay xxxx
Bless you but when your daughter grows up she will remember all the things you have done for her and she will understand how hard you have fought for her.
I understand the jealousy like you zi am not a jealous person but I feel envious when I see couples.
Life is really hard hugs Jo xxx

The way you are feeling is so how i would expect you to feel. One day we would have expected that perhaps we would be here without our partners but to lose them so young when like you say not only are you crippled with grief you also have the practical things to think about like finance and can you afford to stay in our home? How will growing up without a Dad affect my children and their journey through life. I feel very very sad that you feel unhappy about the report you have just had and i only hope you get the answers you so desperately deserve. Keep in touch and take care X x x
