My husband
My husband died on December 22nd after just 3 weeks of hospital care for cancer. It went so fast I still can't process it all. About every other day, I have sore sinuses from crying so much. I see his last picture, I cry. I see his lighter, I cry. I see his drivers license, and yes I cry. Then it seems I can move on a little. It feels a bit like I just dove off the deep end, and the water is so deep I can't see the surface. I think that when I reach the surface I will have learned to…

My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child
I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Hi Nana, Welcome to a place none of us wanted to be, but at least we can understand each other here.
My husband had a little more time than yours but it was such downhill ride the 9 weeks did not feel that long.
The crying is normal. I call my tears kisses. When Tom was here I could show my love with kisses. Now my tears are expressions of the love that lives on after he is gone. I do not make excuses for my tears and neither should you.
If you need to talk, I am here to listen and understand.
