    Hi @LeoLucky3Red, I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. To lose her so shortly after her diagnosis, and right before Christmas must be awful.

    Please don’t feel pressure to cope right now. Getting through the day is a huge achievement in itself, but if you don’t mind sharing, we’d love to hear about her (and you) when you’re ready.

    Just to say how sorry I am too @LeoLucky3Red - it's always dreadful to lose a loved one, but to lose your wife so quickly, & before Christmas, must be so hard.

    I felt like I was walking around in a bubble, whilst everyone else was just going about as usual.

    I hope you find the comments & links above helpful; I didn't take up the offer of help, but have often since wished I had.

    The only way I feel I've ever been able to describe it is, that I've had to tread a path I'd never before imagined. Taking those first steps on that path does take time.

    Adding my gentle hugs too.

    I lost my Mum on Tuesday and it's like your world changes and you change with it into someone you don't recognise and can't quite figure out.

    I already have brain fog from ME and I'm now experiencing that x 100 🙃

    My friends and remaining family have been wonderful, have you got any support from loved ones?

    So sorry to read you lost your Mum recently @Kimi87 - Mums are indeed wonderful, but, perhaps like mine, she will continue to shape you, & always be a very important part of you.

    Lost mine sadly decades ago, but she definitely shaped me, for which I will remain eternally grateful.
