Hi, 

I am so sorry to hear the news of your husband, I know that there will be no words that can help right now but please be assured that you and my children are in my thoughts and I hope that this offers you some comfort.

It breaks my heart to hear that you have not received the love and support from your friends and some family members during such a difficult time. I just cannot comprehend why people act this way. As Jane stated, kindness and thought costs nothing and people underestimate how even a short text can make a difference even for a brief moment.

You are certainly not a vile person, far from it. People just do not know how to handle death and have a fear of it but do not realise the impact that this has on the person grieving. 

Last week, I lost my dear Dad to Lymphoma and I am heartbroken. He had been ill for 3 years but did not tell the family that he only had a short time to live and was rushed into A&E on Christmas Day. Like yourself, I am disappointed that friends and family have not been more supportive even those who have been through the same and I was a rock to them. In general, people are very wrapped up in their own lives and just cannot seem to put their own feelings aside for the benefit of others.

When friends of mine lost a parent, I sent flowers and cards without hesitation, I have not received the same and it hurts. I have to accept that others just do not share the same compassion and empathy as I do. 
 

Please look after yourself as you have been through a very traumatic time. The wellbeing of you and your children is more important than anything right now, those who are not supportive are not worth your time or energy.

Thinking of you all and please do reach out if you need to.
