    Stormybay, may I add my thoughts and very best wishes for you.
    I'm so sorry that you are going through this.
    I don't know what to say really but wanted you to know there are people out here thinking of you at this time.
    I wish I had some words of comfort but I'm at a loss on what to say, I am really moved by your post. XXX

  • Hi,
    Can I just say that my faith in human kindness is restored through such lovely kind words, I can hardly read most of them at the moment..........I'm hoping I can print this thread off and read at a later date when I will hopefully be less raw. I've sent the older children to a friends just for an hour so they can relax (told them I needed to do some wrapping) as they all just keep looking at me, wanting me to tell them what to do, and they are SO worried for me, they need to have a break for an hour, I have no answers at the moment. DD3 (11) had gone to bed.
    I will go and watc TV and try to sleep, I need to seep for some sort of relief, it doesn't seem to come...
    Once again, thanks so much. I will come back to the thread and read, although I may not be able to comment.

  • Stormybay....

    I am so sorry to hear of the sudden loss of your husband. I am sending you my thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time.

    Take care

  • stormy - so sorry for your loss, again, like many others have already said, I will be on here most of the time over the christmas period.....

    and that goes for anyone else who needs to post, christmas isnt always a happy time for everyone, it can be a hard and lonely time for many. for those who feel the need too, please dont be alone, post a message,there will be people around on here just to give you a great big virtual hug.

    I am so sorry to hear of you sad loss. Here is a website which in the future maybe of some help to you. My mum now finds it helpful after my Dad died last year. Please don't be put off by the title of the site, it is not what it seems.

  • I can only add my heartfelt sympathy, I cannot begin to imagine what you, and you family are going through right now.
    Just take each day as it comes and do whatever you need to, to get through.
    My thoughts are with you

  • Stormybay.....I've typed...erased...typed...erased and typed again over and over. Words just wont express how I feel for you..."sorry" just seems too small a word ...but I am...truly sorry to hear about your loss.

    I would just like to wish you and your family all the very best and to let you know that I will be thinking of you over christmas.

    We all grieve differently, whether with or without tears.

    You'll be in my thoughts and prayers
    xx
  • Thank you all so much...................at the moment, it seems what I said about the tears was wrong...............I now can't see....
    Going to try to sleep now, thank you all so much, and for web link......I'm sorry to give you such a 'downer' at Christmas, but believe me, it HAS helped.
    Thank you to all
