I lost my partner of 50 years to bowel cancer ten months ago.Even though ten months have passed,it still seem like last week to me.My partner Christine,was everything to me,the love of my life.I'm finding it so hard to cope without her,still can't believe she's gone,never to see her or talk to her or hold her hand again is breaking my heart.Have been told to move forward and start doing things,but without Chris it all seems pointless to me.I know people seeing this are going through the same feelings as me,how do you cope losing someone you love and have done everything together for the last fifty years.Anyway,thanks for letting me into your community.

  • Hi and welcome to the online community

    I'm very sorry to read that you recently lost your partner to bowel cancer but you've come to the right place for support.

    As the online community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join the bereaved spouses and partners group where you can give and receive support from others who have lost their partner to cancer.

    To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'. 

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
