So on Chrismasday one of my life long froends die in a car crash from work on his way home...... He and his wife was and is the only family I ever knew. They were always there every step of my life. My support my soft place to fall. She was so ill for months and I was broken from fear of losing her. Now he is gone just like that no warning just gone. How do you go on when you have lost something so wonderful in your life. How please tell me.

it is hard to go forward when life only drags you down..when prayers dont help turn to music...life is always choas..sometimes organized sometimes not...seek a silent spot and place music in your head...nothing can replace your loss so you need to crutch it....my condolences...i chant and meditate when i lose something near and dear..recall the happy times dont dwell on the loss...praise each day...here is a spiritual topic i dont know how you feel just dont go inside yourself forever...
try to distance yourself grieve but carry on for him...

So sorry to hear about your terrible loss Jo.

How do any of us recover from the loss of a treasured friend.

Has your friend plenty of support for the loss of her husband? You do not say if they live in Spain with you[I gather you are an ex pat or am I wrong!] Perhaps you can be of support to her,which will help you heal your own grief.

Losing anyone in life is hard but at the end of the day to rely on others for support,however comforting,is not helping you to gain inner strength. Your friend needs you now,so be there for her, and this hopefully will enable you to move on.hug

Just one hour, one day at a time at first. Your friend and you need each other more than ever right now.

Sometimes you will grieve together, sometimes you will be too consumed in your own grieving processes to see each other even if you are sitting next to each other.

You will both go through so many stages, so many emotions and it will take a long, long time to find peace again.

I am so, so sorry for your and your friend's loss.

there is nothing to say at this moment Jo..I am so sorry for you and your friend.

sometimes the events in life are overwhelming and one needs time to digest.
because life goes on, no matter how big a loss is.

take care of yourself and your other friend and keep the memory alive. as long as you have the memory, your friend will be with you, and you carry him in your hearts.

sad flower so sorry to hear that. good people have a message even when they leave us. the message is that life is so fragile. and yet some people start their day with just one thought in their minds. bothering , harassing, cheating, bashing others, just to empty their own inner poisons of the heavy past they carry in their backpack.sad flower I share your sorrowteddybear

He was a wonderful daddy and husband.........The world will never be the same again. Thank you all for your very kind words and support. XXX joanna

I am so sorry for your loss. sad flower The pain doesn't go away, it just eventually rises to the surface less frequently. Let the tears come, they are healing. And one day, you realize, surprisingly, that you smile at the memories of your loved one, and that it is possible to smile with the pain of loss. Seek the support of friends, allow them to help you, seek your solitude when needed. There is no "right or wrong" here. hug

I tried to email you but I'm not in your area etc.I noticed that you are in to writing,so why not put down your thoughts of these wonderful friends that have been there for you over the years.Take the time to remember life shared with them and the joy their friendship has given you.

We are not always able to speak in words that which may be easier to write,and as you think of happier times and put pen to paper,so the process of healing will begin. It can be your own journal which you can chose to share with his loved ones when they are ready. I personally think that it would be a fitting tribute.

Light a candle in your local Church in his memory too. I used to when I lived in Spain, and it gave me comfort bringing those loved ones closer to me.


Take care of yourself.

hug
