I am so sorry to hear this news.

Good morning rockett,

Life for you and your children without your husband is horrendous, for it must go on, and your grieving has to be shared with the every day life of caring for them on your own. You must miss him dreadfully. I do hope you have good support from your family. Now you have a lifeline with your computer and I am sure it will help a little. Everyone on here is so caring.

I wish you well.

xx

Hi rockett,so sorry that you are so unwell,& at such a young age too,do hope you get some respite from your pain,I can hear your frustration at being limited in what you do.I feel that most days!! But,the main thing is we're still here,it could be worse!!

I'm so glad you have a downstairs flat now,& wonderful you have a little garden to give you pleasure still.

You said you're locked into fibro,but you can still come on this health unlocked.If you look at the top of the page,it has a heading of 'your communities' you can join as many as what might interest you!

Do take care,& keep popping in,hugs Wen xxx

Good morning Rockett, sorry to hear life is not going well for you and the children, it is hard when you lose your husband and the childrens father, the greif is twice as hard. It is wonderful of you to take the time to let us know. As a widow myself I appreciate the difficfulties you are facing. Sadly there is no magic wand to heal the hurt, but with time it becomes easier to face each day without someone to confide in, it is twelve years since I lost my husband but I still hate returning to the empty home. Now you have a new laptop you can turn to us for support, hope to hear from you again soon., take care and keep in touch xx Enjoy your day
