Hello
I’m so terribly sorry to hear about the loss of your dear husband. You must have loved him very much.
Well , the reason I am responding to your post is because it rings true with how I feel. I lost my dear daddy four months ago. At first, I thought was handling it rather well, as you say, sorting out the funeral and any probate etc… Then BOOM out of nowhere comes the grief like a volcano erupting. I’ve spent days in the house howling like an animal with physical pain in my chest. Then it stops and I just get up and get on. But then it comes again- the thought of never seeing him again takes my breath away.
I know we do t know one another but it may be a comfort knowing it’s normal and we just have to go through this. But you’re not alone. Contact me anytime xxx Ellie

Thanks Ellie. It’s a horrible feeling isn’t it? the tsunami of grief and tears is overwhelming sometimes. My daughters feel like you having lost their beloved dad, even though they are adult, they still need their dad, and always will. Let’s hope we both feel better as time goes on. We can always chat on here too when things get on top of us.
Im so sorry for your loss
The same my husband passed 3 months ago and I was supporting everyone else arranging the funeral and loads of family here every day now get occasional visit which is lovely as my grown ups have jobs

Exactly like me. Our 57th wedding anniversary would’ve been this June and we were together for two years before marrying, so a lifetime really. He died September 2024, totally unexpected. Tearful one day (especially the long nights), OK the next, but anxious all the time which is not like me at all normally. Sat listening to the recent storms worrying myself silly in case anything happened and I would be on my own trying to sort it out.
Thanks for the reply we would of been married 58 years in March and also knew each other for 2 yrs before
It’s things like after dinner id say shall we have nice cup of yrs and general chit chat now no one to talk too eating alone but still expect him to come in the door
