Lost my husband 3 months ago in a tragic motor bike accident. He was my soul mate. Been together 22 years. My 16 year old son lost his dad too. All still feels like a nitemare. Miss him so much.

I am so so sorry for your loss my heart truly goes out to you..

3 months is so raw its very early days for you and your son but to lose him in such tragic circumstances must be absolutely devastating... Take each day as it comes baby steps you will never get over losing your love but overtime you somehow push through eachday the best you can.

Please take care

Hello Sueby55

A very warm welcome to you.

I'm so sorry to read your news, it is indeed dreadful and a nightmare for you and your son who is at a vulnerable age. It's very early days and you are both feeling raw, angry and numb and sadly this will continue for sometime. You will both need support separately in my view as naturally, you are grieving yourself and will not be able to support him in a way he needs right now as you need support yourself. Your doctor can refer you both for Bereavement counselling in the coming months and this will very helpful for you both especially as you have separate needs.

I am hoping you will have other family members who will step up and comfort you and your son and I hope you find support here too from our friendly members.

We are always here for you Sue, so do stay in touch.
