Morning Carol

So sorry to read of your sadness particularly this morning. The tears cried now will help you to become stronger in the future but of course that is no help to you right now. Eight weeks is very little time after spending so many years together but each day is one day less of this heartbreak that you now feel. I do hope you are able to get some rest during the day.

I lost my best friend a year ago, she was 50, but in very different circumstances to those of Pete; I miss her so very much. It is a long road but a time will come when you are able to enjoy and feel happy with the memories of your time spent together. I don't know when that time will come but now is the time to grieve for your loss and it is understandable that you wish Pete was still here. Please don't ever feel that you are being miserable. We all feel for you at this difficult time and our support and good wishes are here for you.

Thinking of you Carol.

Hi Carol,

It's perfectly normal that you are still grieving for Pete, eight weeks is a very short time.
I can imagine you must miss him dreadfully after being together for so long. One day you will find yourself smiling when you think about him instead of crying , but it takes time.
I'm glad you are able to share your feelings with us, and I hope you will continue to do so, we are all here for you.

Love and hugs, Doreen xx

Dear Carol

I was so sad to read how you had lost your darling Husband and the very difficult time you are now going through. I lost my Step Father in very similar circumstances five years ago. I still remember the shock at losing him so quickly and it took the family many months to even start to realise that we would not see him again. Mum came home and found my Step Father had passed away some time during the day and we found out he had underlying health problems we did not know about. It brought our family very close together as we all needed to support Mum and each other. Mum finally found that she had to continue living her life as my Step Father would have wanted her to do and now she does everything in his memory. We still miss him lots but time helps to mellow the awful dragging feeling in your stomach and heart. With the support and love of your family I am sure you will also reach that peaceful acceptance.

Thank you for sharing your story with us and it made me smile when you told us that Pete was always in the background thinking about us and our many trials and tribulations. I am sure he will continue to be there for you just as he was for us.

With lots of hugs and prayers

Jackie

Hi Carol

I'm trying to type this through my tears, I do feel so for you. There are no easy answers and it is hard to bear, but I'm thinking of you, as are many others on here.

Please keep in touch.

Hi Carol,

Just to say my thoughts are with you - 8 weeks is still such a short time, and it`s better that you let the tears come. We are all here any time you need us.

Take care,

Kathleen x

Carol, do you have someone you can call on in the night if things are very bad? Maybe there are a couple of close friends or family who would love to help and don't know how. Perhaps you could call them and share some of the sorrow and loneliness just to get you through the long hours just now? I hate to think of you awake and alone in the night. Thinking of you tonight XX Ailsa
