2023 and half way through 2024 we have been settling in our new house in Cairns, after travelling more than 10yrs around Australia. Life has been busy during that time that is why I have not posted any photos.
On the 26 June 2024, my life changed forever. My husband - Dave passed away unexpectedly of complications of double heart surgery. He never woken up after 8hrs of surgery. Dave was 60 years old.
We been together nearly 28yrs and married for 22½yrs. I am devasted and after 17 weeks or 4 months....I still can't believe I will never see Dave again.
Grief is horrible and I cry every day.
Oh Lee-Ann I am so sorry to hear your heartbreaking news. I was only wondering about you a couple of days ago. There are no words that can take away the grief you must be feeling. I just pray you will eventually come to acceptance.
When my daughter died at the beginning of 2013 age 36, I, along with my other daughter had just started 365 and we both decided to continue taking photos, to try and find good things in the world. It really helped with the grief, so maybe you could pick up your camera again and find that beautiful sunset or just something that makes you smile. I do hope you can find a happy place again. Take care xx
I'm devastated to hear this Lee-Ann. Just a couple of days ago Graham and I were talking about meeting up with you both in Parachilna and wondering how you were. Sending hugs and heartfelt condolences xx
That is very sad, and I know how grief is after loosing our daughter age 32 12 years ago. As @onewing Babs said 365 helps the healing .. gets you out and about seeing all the beautiful things we take for granted.. Days will be sad but remember all the happy times..
I'm so sorry for your loss. The grief is something one simply cannot explain.
I lost my husband 10 years ago, and I still can't believe it - but I have found the way to find much joy and beauty in life. Take all the time you need, your grief is your own, and you will move through it the way you need to.
Lee-Ann, this is so sad to read. My heart goes out to you at this sad and unbelievable time. Grief is so sad and everyone goes through it differently - may you find the strength and time to help you through it. This is one step for you, being able to post it here. My thoughts are with you. xx
