@PennysIntoPounds - So sorry to hear your sad news. Unbelievably, you are the third person in the last 2 or 3 months I've heard about to whom this has happened. One was Mr F's ex-brother-in-law with whom we had both stayed in touch & would have liked to attend his funeral. Even his ex wasn't told & they had a very amicable divorce. She actually only found out when she bumped into a mutual friend in a shop! Obviously your ex-partner was far too young to lose his life. So many lives taken this way & far too soon. What an upsetting thing to happen. I can absolutely understand you feeling knocked for six.
Sending love,
