I can’t believe how cruel life can be, I lost my wonderful husband five weeks ago and have been struggling to cope with everything then today my ex husband of twenty years, the father of my sons who was still a big part of my life because we parted amicably for the sake of our sons passed away today. I am now trying to cope with my grief for two amazing men who I have wonderful memories of but I am also trying to help my two sons deal with their first experience of losing a close family member. They are devastated at losing their dad and I have got to be strong for them, I am feeling overwhelmed with the sadness of it all

Oh @derbyhall i am so sorry you are having to deal with all of this. Such a lot of loss and sadness and within such a short period of time.
Be kind to yourself and make sure you are eating and sleeping as well as you can. Especially as you are supporting your sons who will be devastated.
Keep posting on here for support and understanding. It can help when you are feeling so alone and lost to know that there are many many others in similar circumstances.
Take care. Sending strength and a virtual hug xx
