double blow

I lost my dear friend Terry just over 3 weeks ago, he was like a younger brother to me, 51 years old tragic.

Wendy his wife and Charlie his 12 year old son seem to be coping ok, but I'm having a seriously hard time trying to cope

Today I just lost my Aunt, she had brain cancer 3 years ago , and was in remission, but my Uncle just called and sid she had passed away quietly in her sleep last night..

Tragic  .......... my mind cant cope at the moment

  • Hi

    Sorry to read your post and know how hard it can be to get your head round such losses.  Lost my best friend and my husband within 9mths of each other and it is only with the support of close family and this forum that sometimes keeps me focussed.  Not an easy journey by any means but hope that by posting here you can find a little support and understanding.  Jules
