Widowed 6 months on

It was just 6 months ago when my husband passed away suddenly from unexpected lung cancer .  It’s still hard to believe it’s happened to us, such an amazing family,my two lovely children 16 and 19 .So much love to give . We are all still keeping strong and keep going carrying on with life a this is what you need to do and they would want you to do . You people out there are the only ones that truly know how it feels and what we are going through.  It’s hard but talking about it helps .

    Thank you for sharing this update. I'm glad to hear that you're still talking. You're right, it certainly helps, particularly on those days when being strong and carrying on is difficult. 

    We have lots of members here who will understand what you've written here and I hope that this post is of support to others who may find themselves in similar circumstances. 

    Sending you and your children my best wishes,

  • Hi Victoria,

    I am sorry to hear of your loss. I understand that it must be hard for you and your family. I can't give you any advice only to say to try and keep strong for everyone. My wife passed away 18 months so I can imagine what you are going through, it's such a horrible time. I'm not sure it gets any easier but you know you have to somehow get through it. And please look after yourself.
