I got married yesterday and I can't stop crying.

[MoreThanOverwhelmed]

DH has cancer. (Diagnosed Jan 2024)
We were supposed to get married - at simple 2+2 ceremony at the end of the month but his Dr's etc encouraged us to bring the date forwards, so we got married yesterday in the hospital where my DH is being cared for.
I'm a week post major abdominal surgery.
We have 2 primary aged DC
It's our youngest DCs birthday this month.

I don't know what I want from this post but I can't stop crying.
I don't think that I know how break it to the DC that Daddy isn't going to get better and come home.
My head is swimming & I don't know what to do.

I’m sending condolences, love and blessings to you and your children. When I read of your husband’s summoning you to make sure you could pay the utilities it was so obvious how much he loved his family.
You will all carry him always in your hearts and minds.

So sad to read your update. Thoughts with you and your family.

I am so sorry.
Thinking of you and your DC

I've only just seen your thread for the first time @MoreThanOverwhelmed

I'm so sorry to all of you for your loss - you, your children, your DH's parents, wider family. Sending condolences and strength for days to come 💐

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad you got to marry this wonderful man but it must be so incredibly hard for you. I don't have any words that would make any difference but I'm sending you strength and love. ❤️

So sorry to hear your news, sending you much love and condolences. Please know that you have touched the hearts of complete strangers on this thread and this has to tell you that there is support and love out there to help you when you are ready.

I am sorry for your loss. You helped your husband to pass, now focus on yourself (he will be nearby). There's a book called 'The Wedding' by John Berger and it tells a story like yours beautifully. It might help.

getting all this delivered to you by text is surreal.

I think you have posted on the wrong thread

Absolutely crappy time for you all and no words will make it feel any better. Thinking of you and all your family. Please keep accepting support and help especially since you had a hysterectomy not long ago and are still in the recovery period. Just get through a day at a time or hour when necessary xx

So very sorry for you.

So so sorry 💐

Nothing to add of any benefit but I'm so sorry. Life can be so cruel. I hope you enjoy every precious second you have as a couple / family. Sending hugs xxx

@MoreThanOverwhelmed you sound like such a strong person and I am so sorry you are going through this. I know thisnisna terrible time but congratulations on your marriage and I hope in the coming months and years it brings you some comfort to know you were together ❤️ There are normally teams within the hospital that help or the hospitsl chaplain. It would be well worth an ask I think. Hugs to you OP.

So very sorry to hear of your loss ❤️💐xx

It was DH's funeral today.
I drank too much.
I've been sick.
My parents have taken DC for dinner.
I still feel sick.
I hate this.

Love to you @MoreThanOverwhelmed . One day at a time now. Prioritize yourself and your lovely DC. So sorry for your loss.
