My amazing husband has died suddenly tonight

[Sockofthefall]

I am broken. Our adult children are devastated. Today, 13th October is our wedding anniversary , 30 years. Being in the house is so painful, filled with wonderful memories of an amazing husband & friend. He was such a good dad , but I want him back with me in our bed, laughing & chatting. How do I cope? I don’t know where to start

I remember when you started this thread. My DH died a few weeks before yours. I think at the time I said all you can do is take it one minute/ hour at a time, one day at a time is too hard. Unfortunately, we are now a few weeks further on and that’s still the case. I am told it gets easier in time but not yet. I thought it would be easier after the funeral, because I wouldn’t have to make all those decisions and do all the organising. I was wrong, because without that focus it hit me that this is how things are now forever, and that’s really hard but we have to keep going, keep putting one foot in front of the other, for our children. Take care.
