I am so very sorry for your loss. You described it beautifully. I lost my oldest sister in 1982, 40 years ago. The pain will lessen, but never go away. Tears and heartache will eventually slow, but life is forever changed, replaced by a new normal. Grieve and let your memories heal you.

Oh darling my heart goes out to you and all your family.

I think it’s so much harder when you lose someone who still has so much left to live for. My brother lost his husband aged 63 after a long illness. But even having time to ‘prepare’ doesn’t help. Mike is still grieving 4 years later and he always will. But he’s coping better now. It’s a bit of a platitude but I think time does heal, albeit you may never truly recover.

Sending massive hugs and if that’s where you need to be stay under that duvet 😘
