    Hi I lost my wife 3 weeks back after a 3 week battle with cancer. We or should I say I am absolutely devastated with this shock and I am living in a daze. It is like losing your right arm. I cannot come to terms with things and wish I could be with her. I know it is raw and no matter what people say you ache inside. The one thing keeping me going is talking to people. Just talk as you have done on here. I have found there are plenty of people who will support you and me on this forum. It is not the same as going round to mums I know that. I have my soul mate missing and I now am here for a chat anytime you feel down and alone.

    Hi Wendy My thoughts are with you, my mum was diagnoised with terminal lung cancer 18 February and died on Friday, it is terrifying, spend as much as you can talking to her she may not be able to say a lot but she can listen, I spent the Monday beore her passing consistent talking to her and it has brought me comfort, hugs sweetie
