this week is just getting worse !

1 minute read time.

I really do not know what to do with myself, im so bloody miserable ! and its just not me (despite my last few blogs),, i honestly feel worse than when ju first died, i dont know if i was in shock or if it was just relief that he was at peace at last (that sounds terrible but hope fully you know what i mean ) or maybe im just exausted, still not sleeping properly , im pissed of with the world, ive never felt angry so why now ? , and as for friend who asked me today if id got rid off all ju,s clothes so i could go shopping and fill wardrobe up,Bol*****s, i nearly punched her ,

ive just read that back and i sound horrible ,but you all know thats not me, im kind and gentle and would do anything for anyone, im quiet and patient , i just want to help other people , i also have to face the gossip about the young widow at football tonight , last time i told them what i thought it just slipped out :) , which also isnt like me , but i need kindness at the moment or they can just ignore me ,which is what i told them,

to be honest i think sadly all i need is a cuddle ,which is what im so missing and maybe some tlc , but its not going to happen ,i know that but doesnt stop me missing ju so much , and feeling so sad that i cant have that , or even the way we used to talk things out every day and put the world to rights, we would have laughed at the gossips together ,but not so easy on your own as im finding out the hard way , i hid in doors in the beginning as couldnt cope but im not going to let them, win, no matter how much it hurts , ju wouldnt want that, he also wouldnt want me feeling so sorry for myself but i think , im just grieving as i should be ,and maybe in a few days will feel a bit better , lets hope so anyway !!!

    dear jenni, I've just read your post and you have every right to feel exactly how you are feeling.  I could feel your loneliness in your words and, no I am afraid, no-one can take your anger and sadness away right now but, I hope, you will get through this miserable time.  I don't know how you feel but I feel for you and sincerely hope, with TIME, which is all you need, you will be able to face the day.  I bet your husband would so want you to live life fully - for him too and I hope you don't mind me saying that.  Take one day at a time and try not to shut yourself away - stand tall even if you feel vulnerable right now and take care.  Please keep blogging.

    Dear Jenni

    I do feel for you - I couldn't bring myself to respond to your earlier, very sad blog before.  What you are going through is too close to where we are now.

    I think that the anger is quite natural - they say it is part of the grieving process, although we know that everyone is different and that there is no handy 'template' for grief, despite what some psychologists might like us to believe.  The world must seem very alien - just getting on,  as it does, indifferently, business 'as usual.'  No wonder grief makes us angry.  I have been furious with everything since my husband's initial diagnosis and the dreaded terminal prognosis.  

    Your relief is very natural too - how do we bear the suffering of those we love?  I am having such problems with that one myself.  Why would one not want it to end?  

    I know that you will be exhausted in every way - I certainly know that I am.  

    The grief will not 'go,' but it will ease.

    Hang on in there, Jenni.  It will get better.

    Oh jenni

    I'm sending you lots and lots of 'virtual' *hugs*.  I think you are just going through the natural process of grieving.  Ride with it sweetie and we're all here to help you as much as we can.

    We all know, too, that you are a sweet kind person but you're just feeling angry right now, and rightly so.  I would feel the same in your position.

    Can you remember how you felt when ju was first diagnosed?  Because what you are describing is very similar to how I feel right now.  Angry that the world still keeps on turning, that people are having fun and leading normal lives and angry that life just isn't fair!  You WILL come through it jenni.

    I didn't know Ju but from what you've said about him, he wouldn't want you to be hurting so much.  He'd want you to try to be happy and I know that's what you will do eventually.

    Love you jenni and I'm always here if you need me.

    *a MILLION hugs*

    Sending you much love and positive thoughts. I need to say no more as we are both going through the same.

    Just hope that time does heal - we have both to find out! Stay strong for the kids.
