You have my heartfelt condolences and so sorry for you. It is very cruel the way that people often appear to be doing better and improving, only to pass. You must both take time to grieve properly so you can move on with your lives.

Death is part of our life....

Talk Talk Talk is healing process.....

Tears flow....

Loved one has shed his robe...

In mental space he is alive as ever....

All world around us is mental creation...

.in tragic shock like this..

..let us take time to soak in grief and switch to mental presence...

A shock like this is a strange

Experience....we get in contact with a deeper innerself.....a state beyond sorrow...

Activate our unconditionned mind...

.look at our own grief from look of mind beyond life and death...

Just look at your

grief, pain ,love, life lived all moments...

It is all there as long as I breathe...

Let it play...grief tears

helpless state...

that is part of being human..

BECOME A WITNESS TO ALL THIS....

Look at the very being shaken

Just look....a peace comes in

Let the life force fill your inner self with love and joyful moments lived......

Walk along paths travelled together he is always there

My heartfelt sympathy on the passing of your husband. Death of a loved one is never easy and worse when you least expect it.

The next few weeks will keep you busy with organising the funeral with your family. However, when your husband is laid to rest and the busyness is over, it’s then you will need support the most. Drop us a message day or night, there is always someone around to listen and offer some comfort and support.

Take care

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my husband two and a half years ago to Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. He was on 100% oxygen. We’d been together 48 years. You must be absolutely devastated. I can imagine what you’re going through as I went through it. Grief is a very personal experience. I miss my husband and always will but I’m trying now to have some sort of normal life. It’s difficult on your own and I hope you find the courage and strength to come to terms with your sad loss. You can have a life again. Take however long you need to grieve. There is no time limit. I know that too well. Take care xx
