My wife suddenly died next to me after 40 WONDERFUL years of marriage

@gemdoc25 You hit the nail on the head.....there is no urgency. As I posted months ago, after 52 years of marriage, my wife passed away unexpectedly at home in her sleep in Feb 2025. There is no hurry to do things that don't feel comfortable. I have her clothes in the closet and I'm taking my time in processing what I do next without pressure from family and friends. As you know, everyone handles grief differently on her/his own timeline. I'm slowly doing better but it all takes time. Wish you the best and be well.

Thanks so much for your good wishes.
She died Januay24, 2015, 8;15 AM in bed right next to me of an immediately heart attack. She not sick or digging any way, thank goodness!!
Dr said that what happy to me is the witst kind of grief. He said if someone’s is really sick, you know that person might die and you are somewhat mentally prepared, however she was not sick so her dying instantly was a double heartache you can’t be prepared for!
