My husband has died

[peachgreen]

He died today. He was 42. He had recently been diagnosed with a heart condition and spent a month in hospital but we believed he was going to be okay. He went upstairs for a rest and they think he had a heart attack. He didn't cry out, they think it would have been fairly instant. I found him when I went to check on him a few hours later and I knew he had gone, I did CPR but I knew it was too late.

He was my soul mate, my other half, the true love of my life. We have a little girl who is almost 3. If it wasn't for her I would kill myself. I can't imagine life ever having any meaning without him.

I've read the whole of your thread all about Mike's illness. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my own perfect other half in July and it's pain like no other. Just know that you are not alone in how you feel, I and many others stand in this pain with you.

So sorry to hear this. Thinking of you and your little girl. 💐

Oh @peachgreen, what awful news. I was on your last thread and really hoped for the best.

Sending a big hug and 💐

Peach, I’m so very sorry. Mike sounds like a wonderful person and he was clearly so loved. Thinking of you and your daughter.

So sorry OP

How can I do this? I want to die. I don't know how to be without him. This has to be some kind of sick joke.

Peachgreen I am so very very sorry that you have lost Mike, such a huge and utterly awful loss. I know the void can feel huge due to the overwhelming feeling of loss and absence. try to take each hour and day as it comes. Just so very sorry for you and your DD

So sorry x

I’m so so sorry for your loss. I can’t even begin to imagine xx

@peachgreen I'm so so sorry for your loss. From what you've said, Mike sounded like a great husband and father. Go easy on yourself, let family support you now, you need time to process your grief for you and DD. Get angry when you need to, cry when you need to. We're all here for support whenever you need it.

@peachgreen I am so very sorry... Sending huge hugs...

I’m so sorry you have suffered this awful shock and the loss of your husband. Reach out wherever you need to for help - family, friends, your GP.
There is a brilliant support network called WAY full of people who have been through this. You may not feel up to it now but they could help you navigate this

Try not to think about the days and weeks ahead @peachgreen. It won’t seem possible to get through it if you look so far in to the future. At this point hour-by-hour survival is key. I would advise looking up some breathing relaxation techniques and trying to focus on those when the grief feels out of control.

I too was reading your last thread, and am horrified to hear of Mike’s passing. I’m so sorry for you all, there’s so little comfort at this time but I hope you get a tiny bit from knowing how much support and sympathy you have on here and IRL of course.

I read your other post and it is truly heartbreaking. I am so sorry for your loss. Xx

Sorry for your loss followed your last post too. You are stronger than you know, focus on one day at a time.

I am so so sorry - go well Mike😥

I am so very sorry, life is very cruel sometimes. Have you got your parents with you.

I forgot to add to my post that when my DH died suddenly my ds2 was just five... Winstons Wish really supported us.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending love to you and your daughter x

I'm so sorry for your loss. You have to carry on for the sake of your DD. Try and be the way Mike would have wanted you to be. Strong and resilient for your little girl. Talk to her about him often so she grows up with him in her life as much as possible.

I read your other thread and I was terrified for you as I had a similar experience with my DH in 2014 and again in 2017. I remember how I felt and I feel for you. Take the most care possible of both of you, his lovely ladies. That is what he would have wanted.

I’m so sorry for your loss OP

I’m so sorry about Mike. I remember your other thread and especially how strong you were even when you didn’t feel it. Your strength will carry you through for your little girl and for yourself. Sending you prayers and hugs 💐
