Went out with friends today they have asked me to meet up tomorrow for lunch I've agreed to ,I know I should in my heart but my head says don't go without my wife but I know she is there with me how do people cope with with it I'm still finding it hard to do
Andrew, it’s not easy to deal with as I am sure you know. I am four year into the loss of Adele, it still hurts, I don’t shy away from talking about her, I never labour the point, she , like your own dear wife had a profound effect on our lives and their beliefs and opinions which live on within us. I do not know how your wife passed away, however it was , you were not responsible, Adele’s words to me were “Live your life” I sure yours would be the same. It’s not moving on it’s living .
