My husband Graham passed away last Sunday he had a stroke last August and after 6 months of caring for him he had a sudden collapse at home and passed away in Hospital, I feel lost and alone after 54 years of marriage, but am grateful that he has been released from all his pain and is at peace

Oh Pat I am so sorry to hear that. I know that you must feel very lost and alone after 54 years of marriage as with long marriages it is as though the other person is part of yourself. I can also understand how in one way you feel a sense of release as it is awful to see someone you love suffering. You have been a wonderful wife to him and looked after him when he needed it most and for that you should be very proud.

Sending you kind thoughts and soft hugs. Be gentle with yourself in the coming weeks and let us know how you are doing.xxx

I am so sorry for your loss. My husband is my rock and I cannot imagine how life would be without him. I am sure you are lost at this moment. I hope you have family to support you, and 54 years worth of loving memories to hold on to. Remember to care for yourself in the coming days and weeks as he would want you to.

At the risk of sounding weird I believe that my dad is around me, because when I ask for help it arrives, and every time I go out of my way to help my mother something really lucky happens in the next few days.

I believe that your husband will be well now and near to you, if you talk to him you will get your answers, you just might need to look out for them a bit more than you used to.

With love xx

oh dear pat how awful for you . words cannot describe how you must feel . ive had a lot of close relatives died and its a complete mind blow. i hope you have family and friends surrounding you to help you . kind regards caroline

Your hubby was living the life both of you wanted before the stroke. It was a good life.

Cherish those memories the good and not so good they were all him. No one is perfect on this earth. Deaths are just part of living and loving him was part of your life.

Family and friends I pray will support you now and in the future. Its at timeslike this you know who really cards in my experience.I lost my ex hubby 4 years ago and my friends miles away stepped up and helped my children....wow Keep smiling and laughing is good find a silly comedy show and enjoy knowing your dearest would laugh with you.Peace.

Pat, i am very sorry to hear your sad news and I am sure you are very emotional at the moment, sad due to the loss of your beloved husband, yet glad that he is now at peace and pain free. Nothing anyone says will change things but some kind words may just lift your spirits a little in the weeks and months ahead. 54 years of love and memories will also be of some comfort. Remember to take care of yourself, Linda x

I am so sorry for your loss, I can only imagine how you must be feeling.

Big hugs xx
