He’s been in a hospice for end of life care for two weeks, and up until a couple of days ago we could call and text each other.
The messages I have on my phone from Friday will be the last, he’s mostly sleeping now, I’m lost.

Thank you so much for the lovely messages, I do have family and friends but for some reason I feel unable to talk to them right now. I think I’m too traumatised, and can’t speak for crying.
sorry for those who have been through it, I know lots have, but it feels like you’re the only person in the world when it’s happening. @2jacqi , to lose your daughter, oh how awful for you, I’m so sorry.
i always think it’s lovely when people say do you want to tell us about him.
My DH is a kind, handsome, generous and thoughtful man, he’s the funniest person I’ve ever met. He’s worked hard to provide a great life for his now teenage children. Thanks for asking about him ❤️

Much love to you both @Hardtimesnow - it’s testament to your love that you are doing this final journey alongside him…I’m so sorry you’re having to do this though, life can be so so unfair… and love to all the other bereaved posters here too. 🌹 🌺 🌷

It's horrible. He sounds like a wonderful man. It's no wonder you are devastated.

Try to drink some water; you need to care for your most basic needs right now.
