I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine all your pain.
Lots of practical help from the crowd at Gran's bet.

My sincere condolences to you HelterSkelter. I will be thinking of you and hoping that family and friends are surrounding you with their love. You have loved and cared for him and been there for him all this time, and that makes it so much harder in the beginning, when your days revolved round his needs. Know that your friends on GN are always here for you whatever time of day or night you might need someone around.

A nice message and I completely agree
HelterSkelter take care of yourself 💐

My condolences and a warm hug to you. I lost my DH 3 years ago after 50 years together, take it hour at a time, sometimes it is 5 minutes at a time. Take any help that is offered. Take care

Sending hugs. Please keep coming on here to chat no matter what time of day or night someone will be here. 💗

My condolences HS. Very sad to hear that 🫂

So sorry for your loss 💐

My sincere condolences to you. Take care of yourself and any help offered take it. 💐

I am sending you a loving hug. As you already know, grief is a journey - so maybe you can come back as time goes by and share how you are. There are many people here with kindness and understanding.

Thinking of you at this dreadful time. Words can't explain what this feels like but there are plenty of people on here who have been through the same thing so please feel free to post anything and everything whenever or if ever you feel like doing so.
I found the only people with any real understanding of how difficult this may be for you are those of us who have been through it ourselves.

Lost DH 4 years ago and still have the "empty/missing" type of experience.Bereavement is different for all. You have to realise what you are going through is a massive loss of part of your life. Be kind and allow yourself to have those feelings.
My Sincere Condolences.

there is nothing like it, no one can even imagine how you feel, i have been through it 3 years ago, and even though you carry on you never ever get over it, i still expect my husband to come home, i am happy enough now but miss him each day, the sheer utter lonliness is unbearable at times, but it wil get easier as i said, take care x

My sincere condolonces.

I found it helped me through those first dreadful days to know that my husband was finally at peace, so I hope you will find consolation in a similar thought.

Stay in touch, as Romola, we are a great number of widows here, and some widowers too, so one or other of us at least will know how you feel at any given moment.

condolences at this very sad time.
