Husband and I both lost our dads, struggling with grief

I lost my dad to prostrate cancer after such a long battle he was my world , my world was turned upside down when he was diagnosed and I still struggle ever day  but my father in law passed away 2 weeks after my father and I know my husband is struggling but know I find we're arguing over our dads    If that makes any sense we are arguing saying I've lost my dad I get so angry because I lost mine  I feel he resents me for grieving my dad I didn't reliese it was a competition it's so awful  

  • Hi, I just wanted to say that I am going through somethign very similar. My husband lost him mum in Dec last year after a very late cancer diagnosis and I subsequently lost my mum to advanced breast cancer in May this year. I feel like everytime I say I am sad/depressed or grieving he says/shouts that he is too. Its so hard isn't it? 

  • I am so sorry for your loss ️ I'm hoping it's just part of grieving I think we're both struggling and taking it out on each other when really we both no how it feels , they say times a healer ‍♀️My children were very close to my dad ,he was a massive part in there lives   They miss him  dearly and get upset and it's like my husband resents that !even thou my children loved them both , I hope things get easier  for you and your  partner  I really do i suppose we just have to learn to move forward without them xxx
