My DH passed away suddenly on Thursday 26 June, there has to be a post mortem and I cannot bring him home until the coroner releases his body. I am struggling to realise that he is gone, as I have been unable to go and see him owing to distance from home and mortuary being closed at weekend. Mum and brother are here, am getting amazing support from them, my 3 children and so many friends. I am finding it hard at night and getting up very early not wanting to wake others but feel need to chat.

So sorry to hear this. My cousin went through the same thing with her DH a few years ago - he had a massive heart attack while out at sea (in the Navy).

There is an organisation that may help some time in the future when you feel like making contact and thats the WAY organisation - Widowed and Young. I'm rubbish at links but just google them when you feel ready and it may help.

All my love, Puss

My partner died suddenlt 5 years ago at the age of 39 with a brain aneurysm. He was playing football and like you i felt as though he was alone in the undertakers and would never have been ready to go as i was 5 months pregnant with our beautiful son. If you need to talk evenstar i would be more than happy to share my experiences of grief and advice you in any way i can. At the moment you feel like you have been hit by a truck and everything is so unreal. You will get bursts of adrenaline where you cannot sit still and then you will just want to crash from exhaustion.Please try and look after yourself, if you are finding it hard to eat just swallow soups and anything that does not get stuck in your throat and try to take the help and support from people when you can. You and your children are in my thoughts and prayers. xx
