Sorry to hear your news Pilks, hope you're holding up OK.
As much as we're mostly a gang of knobheads on here it's a great outlet with some decent people so lean on it as much as you need to help you through it.
All the best mate
Oh mate that is absolutely gutting to read.
So sorry for your loss. I don't know what I'd do in your position but reach out to the people you have in your life and try to celebrate the good memories. If you want to talk about the struggles of...
Terribly sorry for your loss. My first wife died of cancer in 2007 and the one thing I learned was not to try to handle it alone. Reach out -- to friends, trusted co-workers, even the motley crew that is GOT. In time, I hope, your pain will diminish.
@Pilks
I’m sure if you need any further support @GrandOldTeam and myself will be more than happy to signpost or help.
Extremely sorry again for your loss.
So sorry for your loss mate. I'm glad you feel comfortable enough to share with the people on here.

Live in Liverpool but work in Manchester/Oldham/Blackpool/Fleetwood most days so if you're anywhere between I can swing by if you need anything. Shopping, some help with stuff around the house, a natter, whatever.
Just message me...
Wow! 30 years married and you had the strength to keep your vows and help her through her disability in her recent life as her Carer. You are more of a man than a lot of people out and about there. I doff my cap to you and offer you my sincerest...
So sad, my condolences go out to you - I depend 100% on my wife & my older son - I shudder to think how I would deal with a loss like yours - but they say time is a healer that old one liner - but sometimes people say it works , but everybody's...
Hiya mate. I hope you're doing ok, i lost my missus a few years ago very suddenly to COVID, i am devastated to read this, you can DM if you want and ill be around to chat, i hope you have at least someone to reach out to if you need it, you're...
This strikes a chord with me. My wife died suddenly 21 years ago, I was fortunate having close friends and family as well as an understanding employer to help me through the pain. I've lost several friends and family members since then but losing...
