I lost my wife to cancer on 4 September. We were together for 43 years and the funeral is today. I am feeling a deep loss and I am not sure where to go from here with the grieving process. Any help or advice would be welcome.

Hello andyj,
We’re sorry to read about the recent loss of your wife and
all that you’re going through. It’s understandable that you’re feeling such a
deep loss, especially after 43 years together. It’s important to remember that
there is no right or wrong way to grieve; the grieving process is unique to us
all. We feature some information on our website about grieving in your own way
that you may find helpful to take a look at here: https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/help/support/bereaved-family-friends/dealing-grief/grieving-your-way
.
You mention that your wife’s funeral took place yesterday; if
you wish to talk about this, or ever need a listening ear, please feel free to
contact us on Freephone 0800 090 2309, or continue talking to us through here.
Hopefully others here on the community will join in and share their experiences
with you too.
