Have at last stopped crying after reading your post. Your loss coincided with mine, my Jeannie died Feb 2nd. after 10 years of suffering with Altzeimers, I feel as I know exactly where you are at this moment, grief is such a heavy burden but rembering both the wonderful, and the not so wonderful things we did together does help me to carry on with the time left until I join her.
Sympathy does not appear to help at all but the concern of others does.
My thoughts are with you, do not be afraid to cry. It also helps.

I do hope Osprey that you have family and friends close by to support you.
I note that you are a retired police officer. I am the widow of one. My experience has been that those of the 'old school' were never encouraged to show their feelings much as I as a nurse was never expected to do so.
Fortunately I have a very supportive family close by and many good friends. It is at times of bereavement that one should accept all the support that is offered.
You will NEVER forget Christine but life does go on, just take each day one by one. Put yourself in her place, if it had been you who had gone first, would you expect her not to feel sad and desolate? No of course not but no doubt you would have expected her to accept any help and support that was offered
Just knowing that others are empathising with you can be a great help if you allow it to be.
life goes on,its getting better,good days and bad days,more good days as apposed to bad days. christine's gone,the ash's have gone,life goes on.......osprey. .
Nice to hear from you osprey and to see you posting again.

Hi Osprey,
I missed this thread when it started in April as I was away.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on you sad loss. I hope that you are getting through the days ok. No need to do more than that.
Sincerely
Ca and Greg.
