I lost my husband in July from multiple myeloma After battling for nine years . We had been married for forty one years . I feel devastated and miss him . Once the funeral was over people stopped calling and it was as though I was expected to carry on with life . I was told he was at peace now no more hospital appointments and chemo but the sense of loss just gets worse and coming back to a empty house is awful. I wake up with a feeling of dread every morning it never leaves me.
