I'm sorry you are going through this. It is something I worry about for myself. A lot. Your husband was exactly where he wanted to be when he passed. You were with him to help, soothe, nurture and love. No small feat for anyone. Please take the time you need to process this and heal. Lean on others when you need. Don't say no to offers of help. May you grow stronger with each passing day while cherishing the memory of your husband.

My heart breaks for you....I feel bad for anyone who is just starting out on the grieving process.  I know the first weeks and even months for me were like living in an alternate reality.  Denial was my friend...I was sured he'd find a way to come back and visit me somehow, some way.  The grief was crippling at times but I'm 7 years out and all I can say is it WILL get better but it does take time.  My advice would be to take it not day-by-day but minute-by-minute if you have to.  The first year is diffiicult just getting through the first Christmas, anniversary, etc.

My husband died of cancer and at first all I could think about was his suffering but with time all those horrible memories were replaced with happy memories that make me smile.  

 

If you ever need someone to talk to there is always someone here willing to lend an ear day or night and sometimes that's all you'll need is to have someone who will listen.

 

God bless you and give you and your family strength & healing.

SOOOOO very sorry for your loss! Sending my deepest condolences- I can't imagine how painful and lonely this must be. Give yourself time to grieve. Your new "normal" will be a huge adjustment and will take time. Give yourself permission to feel this loss.... Do what you are comfortable with. I will say that getting outdoors and feeling the sun on your face and breeze is nice! Little steps..... Surround yourself with people who love you, but do not feel badly when you ask to be alone!
