Syliva, I am so very sorry for your loss, I know how it feels, my husband passed away in October and I miss him so much, I too wish they could let us know they are ok.  There are lots of people on here going through the same terrible time who will offer support.  Sending love to you Debbie xxxxxx

Hi Syl, not been good for a few weeks now don't know whether its a stage or the nice weather but been very down, had my mum round today and got stuck into the garden, I just can't face going out with family or friends. Hope it passes soon.  Glad you have been out and about.   Take care thinking of you.  Debbie  xxxx

Hi Syl no I don't have children I do have good friends and family and my little neice is a joy. Debbie xxxx 

Hi Syl and Debbie

The early weeks and months after  such a deep loss (for some years even) throw up many emotions and even the presence of family and friends can sometimes present their own problems. Our feelings are so personal and sometimes difficult to explain to others but the forum gave me a much needed outlet for the emotional rollercoaster I found myself on.

I am somewhat further along the journey as it is almost 17 months since I lost hubby though the emotions still come and go. Earlier today I had a message to say my son's fiancee was in labour (week overdue) with their first baby and  I shed tears both in the happiness that is coming and the sadness that my hubby, who would have been so proud, is not here to share the moment in person.  I am grabbing on to the thought that he is in all our hearts and that the new baby will have some of his genes as she goes on with life's journey.

Hope you both have a peaceful day. x
