Hi, my name is Eryn.
I lost my wife (young) to secondary breast cancer in 2018. In that time I haven't been able to connect with anyone who can really understand my situation, which I've found to be pretty lonely, especially during lockdown. I found this forum online and thought I might join.
Hi Eryn and a warm welcome to the Online Community. I'm so very sorry to read of your wife's passing 3 years ago. I'm pleased you've found us and hope we can help in some way.
I would recommend you join the Bereaved Spouses & Partners where I'm sure you'll find support from others finding themselves here.
