Hi Caroline
Thanks for your message
Sorry you have recently gone through this experience too
You are right about the grief, it does take time, same as losing someone through death. In some way's I find it harder, because our loved one's didn't choose to leave us when they died. I know healing is taking place all the time, but I still think of him every day - not in the sense of wishing we could go back, but just that dawning again, like you say about living/being with someone for so many years - and some time it just washes over you - omg, he's with someone else now. Just feels so weird! and painful still.
I think it is re building our lives too, and adjusting to being single again. And supporting ourselves etc.
How are you feeling today, do you have children? Sending hugs
