Hello, I lost my husband just over two weeks ago, we have 3children 13, 17 and 20 and I am trying so hard to be strong for them but I miss him so much. I am going through the motions each day but feel numb and then when I am on my own I feel so sad and lost. What I’d give to have a little more time with him.
My husband was diagnosed with testicular cancer a year ago but it was an extremely rare and aggressive form. He was doing really well following chemo and we hoped he’d have a long time but then all of a sudden he went downhill and passed away within 3weeks.
We have so much support around us but I just want to shut myself away and not see anyone, people don’t truly understand when they haven’t been through it. I don’t have anyone around me who has. I know I am so lucky to have this support but it’s also exhausting and overwhelming.
He was such a positive and cheerful person and was loved by everyone and I don’t want to let him down either.
I know what I am feeling is probably all normal but it would be good to speak with others who have been through this and understand.
