I’m wishing the minutes, hours, days, weeks away from your passing in the vain hope that this pain may ease… just a little. Sadly, as the days, weeks and months go by… it just seems like it was yesterday I lost you. Time won’t heal, it may diminish the raw pain to a degree, but life is at it is for me, nothing can ever be the same…and maybe I wouldn’t want it to be ? Your life was my life and without you I have no life.

I know the feeling. I lost my husband of 43 years last July 24
The pain is just as raw.
Grief plays tricks on you. You think your doing ok. I’ve been out with friends all day, feeling ok. As soon as I come in to an empty lonely flat, the pain and stomach rentching grief hits me like a huge wave. I just want him back, I’m a shadow of who I was without you. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do now? You were my life and it is a scary empty place without you.
How do we get through this?

I feel your pain. I’m just approaching 2 years without my lovely husband of more than 38 years and I miss him every day. I know some people think I should be “moving on” but I can’t. I see my sons for a few hours most weeks but that is the only constant now. Other family members and friends don’t bother keeping in touch so much any more, and even when I do see them it doesn’t take away the loneliness because Dave’s not here anymore and they seem to think I should be the life and soul of the party. That’s never going to happen, my life pretty much stopped when his did. People just don’t understand how excruciating it is to lose your life partner and it really annoys me when people say “Dave would want you to stop being sad, he would want you to start enjoying things again”. Well no kidding Sherlock, of course he would.
