now what

Less than one minute read time.

Family has all gone today back to their lives far away.  A friend will be with me later and until I am ready to be alone again.  It just gets harder every day as each da there is a little more time to think about everything that happened.  It has been such a horrible three months and it has only been three months!  I still can't take it all in.  He was so well in July, we had a lovely cruise around Britain and I am so glad we did do that.  Then from the beginning of August, doctors and hospitals and emergency rooms and in and out of hospital.  I miss him so much already.  How can I go through my life without him?

    Hi Bren it will get easier I promise I know I have been there. Just go with your feelings and keep yourself well. You are priority as your darling would have wanted you to be! Take each day as it comes, treat yourself with kindness, if you want to stay in bed then do it, if you want to take yourself to bed in the afternoon, then do it, if you want a tipple or two then do it. Anything to get through the first painful months. The pain will ease but never go away it will just change and not be so sharp. You will find a way to go on alone, it is hard very hard but I think the hardest thing of all is to watch our loved ones in pain and dying. That is hard! It is funny how your body takes care of you in the early days of grief, a fog comes around you and you feel like you have a cotton wool brain. This is to help you get through these dark times. Remember you are no1 now! What YOU feel and need to do is the RIGHT thing to do. One day you will realise that I am right and you will feel better, along way off yet but it will happen. Take Care of yourself. Thinking about you Julie XXXXX

    Oh my lovely lady, I feel your pain and I have no words of comfort for you. I could say the usual things that time heals but I don't think you need to hear that. You will go on, you have to, what would he say to you. Love never dies and neither do memories, those are the things that no one can take away. I wish I could make you feel better and say the right things but I can't. I send my love, my thoughts and my love...............carol x

    Hi Bren,

    Like Carol I cannot make the pain go away but I can be here for you in cyberspace anytime you need a virtual hug or shoulder to cry on.

    You are in my thoughts and prayers.

    take care love Terri xxx
