This means so much…all of your support

SDianeL · September 23

been thinking of you. I lost my husband in August 2024. I know how you feel. I still come here for support and to try to help others. Give yourself time. We’re here for you. Hugs. 💜

No matter what may have transpired

I will forever and always love him so very much

When will I stop feeling guilty that his rapid decline was because I let the hospital admit him with agitation and that I am guessing was mixed with delirium. And maybe if I didn't ever take him in because of balance issues he would still be beside me right now. I am probably not being rational but am always second guessing everything

I am so sorry for your loss. None of this was your fault. You did the best you could do with the circumstances at the time. You were in an impossible situation and had no choice but to take the actions you took at the time. Neither of you were safe. Second guessing what you could have or should have done changes nothing. Find a grief counselor/therapist to help you through this. What you are going through is all part of the grieving process. It will take time to get through this grief and pain.

To all my friends, tonight my husband's ashes will be scattered to sea. Please take a moment to have kind thoughts

Well it has been 2 weeks since my husband passed and the phone calls have stopped, the neighbors don't come by And now the loneliness creeps in again.

Can you find a grief support group in your area? Maybe contact a local hospice organization?

hugs and love to you.

Yes I am going to a grief group next week let's see how it goes

I am just not up to seeing anyone or doing anything since my husband passed The grief is dibilitating and I just need to be alone right now. A few people wanted to see me but I am just not ready and need to know how to say no. I find myself saying "yes" and then cancelling

I agree . You need to see a grief counselor. None of this

I am seeing one this week, thank you

Do you have other family members who can join with you to provide you some support? Handling your situation alone must be frightening. The pressure to make decisions about our loved one when we are alone and not knowledgeable enough about the condition is difficult to handle alone.

I have a couple of people that I talk to on the phone but they live far away. I just am not up to seeing anyone right now. Just thinking about venturing out gives me anxiety.It has been a little over a month since his passing and I I need some more time. I am going to a grief group tomorrow, hope it is a good fit for me Thanks for your perspective
