Hi Jayne 64 and welcome to the Online Community.
I am so so sorry to read about your husband, my sincere condolences but I hope you will find the support available in the community helpful at this difficult and challenging time.
Talking with others who are walking the same type of path (my one is completely different) will help you navigate this unwanted journey.
The New to Community is like the Community Reception area and as there are many cancer types and experiences so likewise the Community has many support groups so can I recommend you start by joining our supportive Bereaved spouses and partners group as this will be a good place for you to connect with other folks who may be on the same pathway.
Navigating the community will depend on the device you are using. To join a group just click on the green link above then scroll down and choose 'click to join' or 'join' on the page that opens.
You can then introduce yourself by putting up a post by clicking on ‘New Thread’ or ‘New here, say hello’ then hit the box with the X on the top right (phones).
You could just copy and paste the text from this your first post and you can also join in with existing ‘Discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.
It’s always good to talk so do call the Macmillan Support Services on 0808 808 00 00 - most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week Clicking here to see what is available. This service provides lots of information, emotional support, financial guidance or just a listening ear.
All the very best ((hugs))
