Hello @Paula57, I’m so sorry to hear about your husband. I noticed you are quite new to the forum and I’m hoping you are finding the community a good source of support. Everyone here has experienced the loss of a loved one and will understand some of what you are going through.

We have some useful resources on our website, including this article which I thought you might find insightful, even if it simply reassures you that how you are feeling is normal.

I’m not sure if you are aware but Sue Ryder also offers a free bereavement counselling service that could be helpful for you. There is currently a waiting list, but if you would like to find out more, you can do so here.

Keep reaching out Paula and please know that we’re here for you.

Take care,

Mick

Hello Paula
So sorry for your loss. I do know how you feel as my husband died last year. I think we will always grieve because if you love completely, that love will never die. I am suffering as much now as I did the day he died and I can’t see an end to that either. That is the price we pay for such a love.
I am trying to make a new life for myself. I am soon moving into the apartment of my dreams, overlooking the sea, and that helps. My family absolutely spoils me too! I am perfectly capable of looking after myself, but they still bring meals every now and then and visit often.
I don’t know whether you can make a new life too, but whatever you do, I wish you peace and eventual happiness.
