Lonely

Lost my husband to Lung Cancer a month ago, I am so lonely and devastated think I will never get over my loss.

Got to move house and lost my job last year to covid.  I am not ready to sort out my husbands items.  Feel like I just want it to be over.

  • Hi Cazzie,

    I am someone who has lost someone dear to me to this disease and my dad is currently battling stage 4, so I do 'somewhat understand the anguish and ups and downs. 
     

    There is little I can say other than that I am so very sorry for your loss and if you ever want to talk I am here. You are not alone.

    Wishing you peace and clarity of mind.

  • 31 March that's my wife's birthday!!!  My wife never had life Insurance  Not even myself had any kind of living for the day but I know what you mean! Life has a way of being cruel to the people they've done nothing wrong that's what I find hard all my wife was a kind considerate person and it was taken from the world it seems like cancer any takes good people 

  • To be honest this is a party hate hate being lonely this is where it gets crazy because if I could sleep next to another girl I don't think I like that but at the same time I've loved doing that for 10 years i'm obviously not ready for relationship but miss the company the one-to-one

  • Yeah miss touch, my husband in last few months distanced himself from me.  Like he already had one foot in the grave.

    But I know what you mean.

  • That must of been so hard for you if you enjoy kissing touchin ect for me my wife wanted to do it all the time until she had to go into a hospice even then she sent me naughty pictures bless her I love her so much but do you miss sharing my life with someone 

  • I sent you a friend request for private messages but it is easier on here as we get an email when someone has left you a message in private you don't get that

  • Because of Covid he never went into a hospice, I cared for him at home.  He was paralysed due to spine tumour.

    Was hard managing on my own, only had district nurses coming in twice a week.  Even did his lung drain 3 x a week.

    Was his carer not his wife towards the end, so so hard

  • I can understand that  It must've been very hard for you what do your husband having to go through that as his wife and his carer i'm so glad I never had the day that that's a special kind of person so you should be pleased that you did everything you could

  • He didn't want carers, and I respected his wishes but I found it hard to care for him.  Changing the bed on my own was really hard.  The night before he died I asked for help, as I was exhausted.  Would give anything to go back in time.  He was in severe pain towards the end.   what is so hard to understand was his lung cancer as he never smoked a day in his life.  He was the most kind gentle and special man, he would do anything for anyone.  

  • Do you have to give yourself so much credit for doing all that I could never of done that for my wife we should be proud of yourself! I guess I was lucky as he went into the hospital/hospice Surely went into the hospice because he had a slight chest infection and they wanted to get that gone before chemo 

    Then about a week before she died they told us it is spread her lungs but again being in the hospice there was no pain she was sleeping like a baby! I guess the fact is she's never going to be with me anymore according to the law she's not even my wife anymore that's a strange feeling I have to keep the she's up in the sky looking out for me ! Before she died she told me she wants me to find happiness again I'm not sure how that's going to happen but I guess I'll try I don't wanna be alone I'm only 40 everything is just so hard now 

  • I am 53 and I don't want to be on my own either,  he wouldn't talk to me about anything to do with him dying.  Not sure if he got his wishes with the cremation and funeral.  His family are a waste of space and his niece even before he was cremated tried to get some of his stuff, bloody vultures.  Saying it was what he would have wanted.  In 9 years only met her twice so she started saying she loved me, what a joke.  Just trying to get me to give her stuff.
