Hi I am new.

Just looking around and did post in another category .

Just starting on my road to life without my ex husband, my friend and my soul mate , only realised too late.

Hello Dinky,

I’ve just replied to your post in the other category, but I wanted to come back to you here as well.

Would you like to share more about how you’re feeling with us? You’re welcome to share as much or as little as you like :yellow_heart:

Take good care,

Bonnie

Hello Dinky.

I have recently lost my wife after over twenty years. We were soul mates too and everyone said we were joined at the hip because everything we did we did together. I don’t have any family of my own and I miss Lyn, my wife, so very much!

Hello Mokka,

We’re sorry to read about the recent loss of your wife Lyn. It’s understandable that you miss her, especially after over twenty years together.

We hope you find some comfort here on our Online Community, and we also wanted to let you know that we offer telephone bereavement support of 6 sessions with a trained volunteer if you feel this would be helpful. You can find out more here: Bereavement support | Grief support | Marie Curie

You’re also very welcome to continue speaking with us here on the Online Community as often as you like.

Take good care,

Bonnie

Thank you but I don’t understand how this site works? Other than you I’ve not had any contact from anyone at all! How do I talk to people in a similar situation to me?

Hi Mokka,

Thanks for getting in touch and for your questions.

Other members of the online community who have lived experience of loss are free to comment or join in conversations, as are our volunteers, many of whom have also experienced loss. So hopefully someone will reach out to you very soon.

I hope this helps and in the meantime, please know that we are here to support you and provide a safe space for you to express your emotions.

Warmest wishes,

Laura
