Hello Riri77, my utmost sympathy and sincere condolences in a time that has left you devastated and to fulfil his last wish was a decision you had made and not the rest of his family.

There are many secrets we all have during our life, some we can share and those we don't, I'm pleased you have posted your comment because those that do need the company and the friendship of other people who have suffered in other ways and understand the grief you are trying to cope with.

When you are able, please get back to us for support.

Geoff.

Hi Riri77, please accept my deepest condolences. I know we don’t know each other but I couldn’t just scroll past your post without giving you credit for being brave with posting on here. I lost my husband a few months ago so it’s every day is a battle. I’m so sorry that you’re going through what you’re going through. All I know is do whatever you need to do when you can. All in your own time. Praying that you have the support system you need & that everything works out well for you.

I too extend my condolences. it is difficult while grieving you find out secrets and then have his family attacking you for doing what your husband wanted,

grief is individual an takes time. I hope you have a friend or family member who can support you.
when you feel up to it there are grief and loss groups you could contact.
