I am hoping to make this a positive Thread mainly because I need to boost my own positive thoughts.
I am coping most of the time. When David died and up to his funeral I kept myself very busy, planning his funeral and benefitting from the support of family and friends. Then there was a gap when I was busy with catching up with domestic stuff. I went away for a few days last week on a pre planned break with 11 other women most of whom had been in a similar situation. They were great to be with.
So this weekend has been the first of feeling more than slightly bereft. I missed my hours of visiting David and just being with him. I have probate forms, donations to send off and many thank you letters – but somehow I need to light my fire.
Yes I will do it, but it may take time. Please share your experiences and maybe we can find comfort and ‘deal with our loss’ in the best possible way.
