I’m sorry to hear of your sad loss. It is totally natural that you are grieving, you have lost your life partner. Accept the help and kindness of family and friends. If people offer to visit or invite you somewhere, try to say yes but let them know that you are struggling and need support.
You will adjust gradually over time to your new reality . Maybe it will feel a consolation that your husband did not have a long slow decline and you have lovely memories. Don’t feel guilty as and when you do start to feel like yourself again. You will always treasure him and the life you had together, however, you must also be prepared to let yourself smile and live again, but it can’t and won’t be immediate.
I’m so sorry to hear this. I also lost my husband of 51 years just over a year ago. I’m still very upset and it doesn’t seem to get any easier as time passes.
I'm so sorry to hear that. My deepest sympathy. After so many years it's like losing a part of your self. As it was unexpected you will be suffering from shock and really should talk to your GP. Adapting to being without someone after more than half your life is not easy and won't be quick.
Sometimes there are just no words to say to help take your pain away
This also must have been a massive shock but try and take comfort that he did not suffer any pain
Hold on to those wonderful memories of reaching your Golden wedding anniversary together your lovely holiday you spent making memories for you to treasure
He may not be here beside you now but he will always be in your heart and one day you will be together again and never have to part
Until then stay strong and hear his voice telling you that you may not be able to see him but he is always watching over you
I am so very sorry for your loss and sending my deepest condolences to you x
Hello.I am so sorry to hear about your sudden loss. You must still be in a great deal of shock yourself right now. Please take comfort in your recent celebrations and treasure these times which I am sure you will. Take help and support from all around you and be extra kind to yourself right now. Sending my condolences to you.
So sorry to hear about your Loss. Its obviously devastating for you and it will take time to come to terms with your loss . But you will just learn to live with it. I think it's harder for women but in different ways to men coping with this. I hope you have family and friends to help you keep socialising and to talk to. Take care. Brian
I can only imagine what you’re going through . My husband was diagnosed with heart failure last year after his stroke and it’s a constant worry . Nothing I can say will make you feel better , I expect you are still in shock and everywhere you look around your house you will see memories of him . I hope you have close family and friends to help you through this . Take care of yourself
