My Dh died this morning and I don't know how to go on

But I will because I have to, because I have 4 incredible dc he loved.

I'm so so sad, didn't see it coming this time. Been lots of occasions in the past when we thought we'd lose him but he fought back and pulled through. Too much for him this time. One month today we would have been married 24 years.

Being self indulgent posting but I'm trying to put on brave front for dc even though 3 of them are adult and trying to be brave for me. We all loved him so much.

I'm sorry for your loss Juan. It's so nice that you have those memories of him saying how proud he was of your children.

magimedi · 27/02/2017 22:14

I saw the thread title as I just logged on & never thought (but maybe I should have) that it was you, El Pesky.

All I can send you is my love my darling.

Your DCs are so lucky to have you there.

I am so shocked & saddened.

Huge hugs (((xxx)))

GoLightlyHollie · 27/02/2017 22:15

If he could see that "the mumsnet" has devoted hundreds of posts to him, he'd probably have a chuckle to himself. Who knows, maybe somewhere he is..
Sorry to resort to cliches but I've always believed that it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all, and although he has been taken from you prematurely, hasn't your life been all the richer from having him in it...
Not to mention the wonderful memories you have to cherish as well as your 4 DC who will always be part of the two of you.
Thinking of you tonight, Juan.
