I lost my husband 8 weeks ago and feel heart broken and angry

I’m just reaching out as people who haven’t gone through this can’t understand how I’m feeling. 
my husband of 24 years who was only 48yrs old passed away 8 wks ago  after a 4 year battle of melanoma cancer. Such a cruel and sneaky cancer. He was so brave throughout his cancer journey and fought so heart but it was so aggressive. He was my soulmate and I feel my heart has been ripped out leaving a massive hole. I’ve got 2 little boys with additional learning needs who I’ve got to be strong for as they rely on me totally and they are trying to process the death of their daddy too. I’m just heartbroken and angry as he was such a wonderful person in so many ways and I feel life is just so unfair. Thank you for listening 

  • Hi Posse,

    I'm so, so sorry to hear about your loss. Melanoma is cruel & sneaky as you say and it's more tragic in that your husband was so young & with a young family.

    I hope you don't mind but I will send you a friend request. If you accept it I can send you a private message with details of an online support group for those who have lost a loved one to melanoma & also a counselling charity for patients & families affected by melanoma - you may find them helpful. I hope you and your boys have a strong support network around you and I wish you all the best.
