Just have no idea what I'm doing

Hi, I lost Mark, my beloved partner of 16 yrs on 17th November this year. He was only 65 and had a heart attack. It was so sudden and unexpected, although he had been a long -term smoker and something he was continually trying to cut down on. I was away when he passed away - we didn't live together anyway - and I came home to find him passed away. I knew something bad had happened as he hadn't replied to any of my texts or calls that morning. I really don't know what I'm doing except avoiding being alone as much as possible. I don't know how to even start thinking of doing anything with his belongings and his home. I have posted a favourite picture taken on 9th August this year, his birthday.

Two years minus five days - sometime in this new year I will begin sorting through Mandy’s stuff. Never felt any rush or need. Feel for you - your partner is always your partner. When I was told “give yourself time” I wanted to rip their face off. As time has passed it is a truth - give yourself time. Biggest hugs - Paul
