So I’ve started back at the gym losing weight obviously a sad but welcome side effect of grief. Keeping on it went for a brisk walk left the house , put my foot on the wall in porch to tie my shoe laces. And the last time I stood there for any amount of time was 8 weeks ago or so , when the paramedics tried so hard but ultimately in vain to save him. On the pavement outside our flat , thankfully the neighbours all stayed well clear. But the sooner I leave this place the better I will be, I think. Sorry there is only you lot I can tell this to.

Hi @Maz2 . You should be proud of yourself for getting back to a fitness routine. I still haven’t got round to that. I can understand your bad memory of that day coming back to you, it’s awful isn’t it? Every time I drive past the road where he died I think about it, and there’s a nice restaurant just nearby which I can never go into now.

All these memories are so hard to deal with aren’t they. Just takes us back in time to places and events we would rather forget.
Keep going to the gym - I’m going to join with my daughter - it can only help I think.
One day at a time xxx

I lost my husband 7 years ago. I was excited to take my new partner to Scotland to experience at new year. I never thought it would re-trigger my grief after all this time in such a way that I have spent the last 6 months being angry with him which has led us to part. The last time I was in scotland for new year my husband was alive and I want him their and my old life back and not my new partner. I now know I should have went on my own and dealt with getting pass the firsts, and followed it up.
I am so sorry for you loss, take good care of yourself. xx
