Widowed 6 weeks

Hi Joyce just to say hope you feel a bit better today. I’m still having the awful days after 7 months. I just can’t concentrate on anything at the moment. Spoke to nice patient man on phone at bank. He went through everything on phone to log in again. Got to the end and wouldn’t go through as it’s got to be 3 days after I changed mobile number and it’s only 2. Got to do it all again tomorrow. Probably mess that up. Times like this wish my husband was here. He would have sorted it. Things have to change soon. Do hope you’re ok. It’s one big struggle isn’t it. Take care. Jill xx thinking of you.

Hi @Jay15,

Yes it is.

Sending best wishes to you.

@Jay15 Hi Jill, I have my usual cry in the morning when I am up at 04:30. Shaky and tearful. Sorry to hear that you are having awful days still. Good to hear that you managed to speak to someone who is patient at the bank. That’s how it should be. Fingers crossed it all gets sorted out for you tomorrow. Thank you for caring and thinking of me. Yes, it’s a struggle - not sure when it will beito get better. We are now heading into the weekend which I dread. I am just surviving hour by hour at today.
Take care of yourself as well. Will be thinking of you tomorrow. Love and hugs to you. Joyce xx

Oh kathy6 what i would give for one more hug. I really miss my hugs :people_hugging:. X

I think the problem is i used to be quite organised and now just lost all confidence. After another fiasco i felt like crying about it. Normally i would just get over it. I always saw the funny side of things. Hate this feeling. I think one hour at a time is a good idea. Yes another weekend. It seems to round really quick. Sunday’s the worst. Take care x

@Jay15 Hi Jill, it’s hard to see the funny side of things when you are hurting. It is not a nice feeling. It’s amazing how our lives have been scrambled by our loss.
Take care and hope this weekend is tolerable for us. Sending you love and hugs. Joyce xx

Weekend and especially Sundays for some reason are the lonely days, must try to have something planned but that’s not easy is it, try to get out or do something nice, here’s hoping this Sunday is ok, love to all x

Yes Kathy weekends are tough I try to plan things to do to keep busy but it’s always there the longing for things to be as they were.
Sending hugs

I agree, I used to love a lazy weekend where we could just make a spur of the moment decision and just go with what we felt like doing. Weekends are now days to dread as friends and family are often busy. Life as we knew it has gone and I’m very sad about that. Here’s hoping for some good moments this weekend, keep strong out there xx

I too hate weekends. Nothing to do. Cant cope with my own company. Need someone to go out with or be at home with. Miss my husband and the life we had

Trying to get used to these weekends. Took my old dog out on short walk. Didn’t see a soul except one woman who couldn’t wait to get away. Quite honestly i couldn’t care anymore. Made another mess of trying to get into bank again. Will leave that till Monday now. Just feel like giving up on that one but will try again. Hopefully we’ll all get to a better piece of mind one day. Best wishes to all x

Sending big hugs to you too. I cry uncontrollably at times. Part of me is missing and the house seems alien and not safe anymore. Cant cope on my own. Get scared of the future. Felt secure before. We were together for 54 years. Take care. Xx

(New to all this as my husband did it all).well i succeeded and so long as i remember the new pin I’ll be ok. Rest of day watched tv. Hope this isn’t going on forever. Take care x

Hi Jay, I went out for a coffee with a friend, it was nice to catch up but oh boy is it hard to come back indoors with no one here. My husband would’ve greeted me asking how we got on etc. it’s so lonely without him. How was your day? X

Hi usual Sunday but thankful i got bank sorted. Nitveas changing my phone number. I could kick myself for failing for a scam phone call. Trouble is i got a foggy brain and didn’t think straight. They wouldn’t leave me alone. Using different numbers to call me. Phone was going every 2 minutes. Felt so vulnerable. And they caused me a hell of a lot of trouble. Couldn’t get into bank till today. I’ve managed to bottle things up until last night and had a bit of a breakdown. Idon’t like living here but nothing i can do at the moment. Just have to carry on. Like you no one to come home to or talk to. Pleased you managed to get out. Take care. Jill x

Wow that’s a lot to deal with when you/we are feeling devastated how cruel of the scammers they are a despicable lot. Glad you got some of it sorted well done. I hope your week goes better, lots of love x

@Kathy6 it’s so hard to come back to an empty house isn’t it. No one to tell things to, no one to text to say I’m nearly home put the kettle on, and no one to give you a hug when you are down.
