Hello Shopaholic and a warm welcome to our forum, 

I am so sorry for your loss and wanted to send you our sincere condolences on behalf of the Cancer Chat team. Coping with Grief is by no means easy and is very personal and involves going through a range of overwhelming emotions. I just wanted you to know you are not alone and so many members of our community are sadly going through a similar grieving process at the moment and I hope that you can talk to one another here. It is normal to feel numb and as if your life has stopped, the feelings of anger you describe are also very common and I hope that with time and support you will gradually feel a little better. Take the time you need to grieve though as there is no right or wrong way to grieve. I thought I would mention MelissaDaisy01 's My Beautiful Dad thread and don't hesitate to respond to it if you would like to do so - this members sadly lost her dad very recently and was describing how she is feeling, the numbness and difficulty to cry even that can also be very much part of grief.

If you feel like you can't cope and find it hard to function, do give your doctor a call as I am sure they will be able to help you and give you some suggestions to help you feel a bit better.

We're thinking of you and your loved ones during this difficult time. 

Best wishes, 

Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator

Thank you for your kind words and I think I may contact my Gp as I'm finding this all too much to deal with.
