Hi Melissa, I’m sending you truckloads of peace and strength as you and your son learn how to make room for and move forward with grief ❤.

Not as a way to “fix it” but as a way to understand it and know I wasn’t alone. I’ve read a lot of your articles over the last month or so. My husband of 20 years, Donald, died on April 22 this year, one day before our son turned 18 (he also had his senior prom the night of the 23rd). Donald had been receiving treatments for stage 4 kidney cancer for three years and was 78, but it was pneumonia that was too much for him. I’m 51 and have so many years ahead of me. As much as I knew my husband would die long before I would (barring any circumstances to the contrary), having him die from fucking pneumonia when his cancer had been steady for so long is just unbearable. It would be unbearable no matter what. I DO live in the past a lot. Thinking about the way we met, looking at photos and mentally revisiting our wedding day, watching the video of our trip to Bermuda when I was in my 2nd trimester, watching home movies of him dancing with our baby boy…. Your articles have helped me but I have a very very long way to go in my grief. My grief is different than my son’s grief but we are both hurting. Thankfully we both have counselors! And I just found a grief support group today through one of your articles that I’m hoping will benefit both of us. I just want to say thank you for creating this site. 💗🦋

Hi Janet, you’re still in the new and really raw stages 💔. I’m sending lots of peace and strength your way.

I am a “new” widow of not quite two months, lost my husband of 27 years to Pancreatic cancer. No matter how much a death is “expected” or “imminent “ it’s still a huge shock when it happens, and you are NOT ever prepared.
