Sudden loss

Well dear friends it is a week today and this exact time they were working on my dear husband to no avail. The agony continues because the coroner rang me yesterday to say it could be another 2 weeks before they can arrange the post mortem. Thank you all so much for all your kind words, it really helps a lot. I am a very private person who holds everything in but it has really helped me to open up on this forum.

Sorry to hear you have to wait for postmortem, it must be very upsetting being left in limbo. But unfortunately procedures have to be followed.

Keep as strong as you can, sending best wishes 🌸

This exact situation happened to my uncle and now my lovely aunt is grieving. Such a shock to get up in a.m. and find your spouse gone and I’m so sorry Esmeruth. So happy for you too to have had such a wonderful partner and also, if I can say, that he past away with no pain. You’re also very fortunate to have a daughter so close by to be there for you. During this time, please also know you have many blessings and this site is also one of them. Take care of yourself, mentally and physically. Sending love and kindness from the u.s.

Just read your post Esmeruth and am so sorry for your loss and the delay in the postmortem. Very unsettling being at the mercy of bureaucracy at such a very sad time. Sending you thoughts and warm sunshine from Sydney 😢🤗🧸🌤️

Thankyou. He absolutely loved Australia and plan was to visit for his 80th birthday in June. We have done so many trips over there and been all round.

Condolences on this terrible loss. Understand your frustration. We had to wait months for my son’s final autopsy report. Reading mystery after mystery and traveling kept me busy plus a huge sobbing cry every day. Also, avoiding group events but seeing friends one or two at a time.

I understand how you feel, when I lost my brother in unexpected circumstances we waited a month. The vacum feeling is immense I know. Take each moment as it comes and then the next and gradually the time passes. Tomorrow will be a different day and each tomorrow a little easier. I will keep you in my thoughts.

So very sorry, such an enormous life changing shock. My lovely Dad died suddenly too, many years ago. The only comfort was he didn’t suffer. Sending my heartfelt sympathy. X
