My husband just passed...

My husband passed away before Christmas...it's been a long and arduous road - the beginning of the battle against Cancer - to the end - never accepting that we could lose.  I am still not sure where I am right now. I've read several books to glean something - a thread - somehow to find meaning where I cannot.  It helped a little...but I am thrown back again and again.  I never truly understood the meaning of grief until now.

  • Hello Sel2018.  So sorry to read that your beloved husband has lost his battle with cancer; and for what you are going through now.  There is a thread, just recently started, from Dezzie entitled "Loss of husband" to which several people have contributed these last few days.  I am hoping the moderators can provide you with the link but it will be somewhere near the beginning of the forum as people are joining and adding to it to talk to each other.  You may find it helpful to read what they are going through and talk to them about your own grief.  My very best wishes to you and your family.  Annie

  • Hi Annie, 

    I just wanted to let you know that I've provided the link to the discussion you were referring to in your post. You'll see it highlighted under 'Loss of hubby' so when you click on it it will take you and Sel2018 to the thread you mentioned.

    Kind regards,

  • Thank you Steph.  Sel, when - as I hope - you read this just click on "Loss of husband" which is highlighted in blue and it will take you to other thread I mentioned.
