Hi CJG4CJG,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm so sorry to hear of your loss and I can only imagine how difficult this time has been and continues to be.

Please remember we are always here for you and there will always be people available to listen. I hope this forum can provide some small support to you, and I know there will be others here who have been through or are going through something similar.

I'm not sure if you've explored additional options for support at all, but if not then do have a look at Cruse - they have some good resources, a free helpline, and local centres where you can speak to someone one-to-one. It's always helpful to talk things through with others and to have someone who can listen.

Keep looking after yourself as much as you can. Take care and wishing you all the best,

Hi there. So so sorry to hear you're feeling this way. I don't think there is ever an age where you feel ready to lose your partner. And unfortunately this cancer is unforgiving. 
It might seem unthinkable at the moment but as your life goes on you will find happiness with your children and remember he lives on in them. You have a reason to keep going. . 
You have been dealt a hard blow but don't let it define you, if possible learn from the unthinkable and allow it to make you a better, stronger person. 
As a young cancer fighter, I can truly say life is hard and sometimes things happen that we can't prepare for and that make us feel like giving up completely. It happens to others but we never dream it would happen to us! But you will find strength and light in your life again. The circle of life can be long or way too short. We can't control it so make the most of every day. Sending many well wishes and hopes for the future for you. 
Also, don't do it alone. There are lots of support services out there. Contact your nearest Maggies centre and explain how you are feeling (they are amazing) or even your GP who can start the ball rolling to get you the support you need <3
