Keep wondering how I am going to get through the next few hours. It has been nearly four weeks since his death and seems to have taken ages to get this far. How do you cope at a time like this, the future looks like one big black hole right now.

So sorry, today will be hard but just let your emotions go, shout, scream, cry do whatever you have to. My daughter, who I cared for died and I found utter peace after the funeral.

Sending supportive thoughts for this morning. I went through OH's funeral in a daze - somehow my brain switched off and I registered very little of it cannot remember much.

You will find your own way of dealing with it and you will get through it - there will be lots of gransnetters thinking of you. Come back and talk to us.

NainCC My heart goes out to you. Sincere condolences. Wishing you strength and comfort for today and after. ?

You can and will cope. And you NainCC. I second Barmeyoldbat, do as you feel. As for the future, try and keep busy and take it a day at a time, don't stare down the years into the future. Look after yourselves, both.
