I think my Husband is dying

Hi

DH had a planned surgery on Thursday which went wrong; he had a catastrophic bleed which lead to his chest being opened and a long time to stabilise. He's on full life support but they are very, very concerned that he has few signs of brain activity.

He's in a good hospital with an amazing team around him, we didn't expect him to last over Thursday night and they've kept him going but I am slowly realising that I think he's gone.

Fuck. What do I do without him? We have an 11 yo DD who is awesome and friends but I feel so alone. So much panic.

Sorry for unloading, just feels incredibly surreal.

Message from MNHQ - Please read the OP's updates before posting on the thread. Thank you.

Op I'm so sorry..no words I say can help. Be kind to yourself, allow yourself to grieve and allow your daughter to share your grief.. life can be so unbelievably cruel.

Thanks

I’m so very sorry,thinking of you all ❤️

OP, you sound so incredibly brave, and thoughts are with you and DD at this hugely difficult time. Surround yourself with friends and family to help emotionally and physically as you navigate through the next few months. You seem like such a fantastically lovely person, and no doubt have alot of real-life support around you, but please, vent, offload, rant to all of us here if you need some virtual support in the small hours, or just want to write down how you feel in the moment. So so sorry for your loss. Xx
