There's so many firsts

The first Christmas , the first Birthday, the first nights alone. They all hit really hard. It’s nearly 4 months since I lost my husband of 38 years.It was all so quick finding metastatic tumours on the brain to saying goodbye just 9 weeks later and now trying to come to terms with the lonely void that exists. When you think it can’t get any worse it does, I guess being on auto pilot for the first few months as there’s been so much to sort out masked this pain I’m now feeling. And it’s not just mine, teenage kids also trying to deal with their grief too.Trying to be stoic as much as possible for them is draining , we all miss him so much. My youngest’s birthday is next week , the first without her dad. It’s going to be so hard.

so very sorry for your loss @KMM It has helped me to be open about my grief but my kids are older and we had 2 each. I can’t imagine what you are going through. x
