I was on another group... Being so optimistic and faithful. Now my husband has died. He was 39 and  I feel shattered. Our 3 children are just confused. All happened in 5 short months. It's been 1 week since his funeral... Now what?

I hate to join this group but I thought maybe I'd make sense here.

    I am so sorry for your loss x my heart aches for you 

  • I'm so sorry you have had to join the group we all don't want to be in.

    You have all been through so much in a short time it's totally heartbreaking.

    As to your question "now what"? I don't have the answer, the world keeps turning, your children will keep you going and somehow we just keep going to bed and getting up again 

    My husband was 47 and his diagnosis was very quick too, we had just 3 months.

    I think you just need to do the essentials, eat, sleep and keep talking to your children and hug them very often.

    Keep posting, there is always someone listening

    I lost my husband last Friday, he strongly battled pancreatic cancer for 16 months, we have 2 children.  You are a little further on the journey as the funeral is next Thursday, I also wonder "now what?" How can life be so cruel?
