Hi everybody im maz and i lost my husband of 24yrs on the 11th of july and dont know what im suppose to do or not do, when you have been with the same person for yrs then suddenly im being told they cant bring him back when i thought they will take him to hospital and i still dont know what to write or not but i am a good listener and i only talk to my 32yr old son who alan brought up as his own when he was only 8yrs old
Maybe its still too raw to think of plans or our life without alan i dont know but i found this group as i dont have any friends

Im always on here lately. I feel like i need to talk to people that know how i feel after losing my brother 4 weeks ago. I cant talk to friends or i break down and i dont want to burden my family as theyre grieving too, even though they seem to be coping better. Keep talking to someone you can message me any time. Its a lonely feeling grief xx

Hi

It’s very important to keep posting. As a group there is so much support here. We may not be hands on … but we can all listen and not judge but share our experiences and ways of coping

Sending you a hug

Mazzy I lost my husband of 40years suddenly and unexpected in June. I know how you feel some days I feel guilty for going hours without thinking of him then crying my eyes out the next day.

People don’t know what to say so just avoid you and you feel so alone. Not sure if it gets better or you learn to live with the loss. Take care

Hi Maz, its so hard, i understand. I lost my mum in January and then my husband of almost 38years in March. I also suffer from fibromyalgia, my husband used to help me so much, he was the only one who really understood how it affected me. Obviously i miss his help, however what i miss most are the little things, eating together, holding hands, his hugs, someone being there when i come home, his laughs, his love, care and understanding. I could go on as im sure you will know. Im available for a chat whenever you need. Sending love. X

Oh God help us all. One posting after another filled with horrible stories of how our loved one passed from us None of us wanted our W/H/P to be alone at that last moment, but that very rarely happens. My Husband died from Covid. I too couldn’t be with him at the end, and I’m tortured by that. I’m so sorry for you.
