Death of a partner

Granny grunt, I am so sorry you have had this huge loss. My DH died 6 months ago and I am still struggling massively.It seems impossible at first to go on. I have found that the only thing to do is to take one day or part of a day at a time.I have pm'd you.

Bellasnana [flowers|] hang on in there and when you need a shoulder or a listening ear remember we are here!

So sorry Grunt and what a shock for you that night. Hold fast to the happy memories of the past 33 years.

I wish I could sit and hold your hand and tell you, I am so sorry for your sad lose, there is nothing I can say that will ease your pain but please believe I shall be thinking of you

So very sorry for your loss. My DH has recently been diagnosed with cancer and some of the feelings you describe are what I am terrified of having to face in the future. I can only send best wishes as you begin this new and unwelcome journey without the man you love.

Such wise words from Soutra. I'm just sending my love and sympathy. Please keep,ousting, there is a lot of love and support on here x

For you with love and sympathy .

That's very hard, grannygrunt hope things start to get better soon.

Every good wish to you, I know that you will find a lot of love, support and advice from those who have experienced the loss of a much loved partner, stick with us Grannygrunt and although we can't change things, hopefully you will find some comfort here.

What a sad event to prompt you to post for the first time - but you've come to the right place. I'm sure you'll find support and comfort with grans who have shared your experience. Sincere condolences to you and your family. X x

So sorry to read of your loss Grannygrunt

Dear grannygrunt what a dreadful experience for you and while you may not see it this way yet how blessed your DH was to be in his own bed beside the person he loved most in the world. The shock will take a long time to wear off and the adrenaline which has helped you through these nightmare weeks will have drained away leaving you weaker and more exhausted than you could ever have imagined. There are gransnetters who have been bereaved relatively recently and others whose sad anniversaries fall around now. There are sympathetic shoulders to cry on and, when you are ready for a giggle some silly threads to help raise a smile. We can't make your pain go away or bring your DH back but we are here for you. It would be lovely to hear more about him when you are ready and/or to hear all about your DGC. and sympathy for your loss xx

Sincere condolences grannygrunt this is an awful time for you and your family.Your grandchildren are beautiful and I hope that the whole family are a consolation to you. Others on here have been through this and will help you if you will let them.

I have 'bumped' Going it alone, and hope that may be of some comfort, remember ask anything you need to, vent your feelings here, they really are lovely ladies here. X

I am lucky to have had twins and another baby girl born within a few weeks of each other who are now 3years.

Thank you all for your kind words and messages. Yes, although I have been on Gransnet for some time, I am a new poster and i can't believe how kind people are.

Yes, lovely photos. Are they twins or triplets ?

just looked at your profile pics...they are all adorable..

grannygrunt do keep posting and telling us your feelings, there are plenty of good listeners here, I can understand where you are coming from as my DH has had c.o.p.d for many yrs and serveral heart attacks and we live from day to day. Your DH was quite young, I hope you will find some comfort on here, it doesn't matter what you say we will always be here to listen.

Many condolences - such a difficult time for you. I know that there are grans on here who have been through the same process and will be happy to hold your hand through this sad time of adjustment. I am so glad that you have supportive family around you and send love and good wishes.
