    Dr. Webster hit home. Most people cannot understand what it’s like to lose your husband unless it happens to you. While Dr. Webster was going through how he felt, it was everything that I felt. I cried and cried. My husband died 2 months ago. Although I’m brave for my adult children, there is a huge hole in my heart.

    My beloved husband died same way ..collapsing on kitchen floor because of heart attack and first reaction was the same. Until I saw him in coffin I thought it s still a mistake and it s somebody else but not him.. and yes everybody think you can deal with that grief and pull yourself together just naturally but it is not like that.. it s much harder..

    I lost my wife and daughter due to covid this October 4, 2020, she is 6 months pregnant for our first baby we've been together for 8 years, we just got married last June everything seems to be going well this year until this happened! The pain is killing me every day, I've lost my purpose in life she is the one who always motivates me to do best with everything, I've worked hard to make sure that I can provide everything that they need but all of this is nothing without them! God knows I love them more than everything!
    I'm not sure if I can survive this, no one understands the pain that I've been going through every day! Life is hard!
    Our house that is full of happy memories is now being covered with darkness and sadness can't live this life anymore, everyday reality is hitting me hard knowing that she is not coming back anymore.

      I hear your painful words! I feel your pain! My 19 year old daughter passed June 4, 2020. My life has changed forever! Today marks 5 months! All I can offer you is my condolences! Some people turn away from God and some draw closer to him. My faith in a future resurrection here on earth is what keeps me going! John 5:28, 29 " Do not be amazed all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice, those who did good things to a resurrection of life and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment." These words do not cure or take the pain away! But it does helps me endure it and learn to live without her for now! Gives me some comfort! I see it as a temporary separation! Another beautiful scripture reads: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning or outcry nor pain to be no more. The former things have passed away." I have a HOPE! And that will helo me survive this tragedy! God gives me strength! Day by day! I hope you find your strength! I will pray for you!

I do relate to what your saying. but in my head life and death share the same street. and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it . no one can do anything no one can say anything which makes the situation any better. on the hole 2019 as been a totally crappy yr but on a bright side 2020 could be brighter carrying very found memories of my late mother and my lovely wife.

    So right, so many 'boxes' ticked! My son, a fit man of 40, died suddenly of a heart attack in Feb 2020 in Jakarta, leaving behind his widow and his son, not yet 10 years old. What Dr. Webster described is almost exactly, word for word, emotion for emotion, what I felt and have been going through since. His birthday is in 10 day's time, and his son's 10th birthday, four days after that...this is a hard month to get through.
