I lost my Darling Wife this morning.
I don't know if I will ever have anything else to say on our beloved DU? I am having difficulty processing everything at the moment.

It is hard to know what to say, and I don't doubt that shock has consumed you. I hope that you have family with you-- or coming-- or dear friends to be with you. If not, WE, the DU community, are here. Whatever we can do, just ask.
You are in my constant thoughts today, please know. 
you care to, we will listen... I am so very sorry for your loss
That's awful. Please don't worry about processing right this second. You feel what you feel. it will take time, maybe a lot of time to "process" it. God, that's just so sad. I'd say more but I don't know anything about your personal situation. Just please go easy on yourself. You've got to treat yourself with a ton of compassion during times like this. Remember there's no "right or wrong" way to go through what you're going through.
Post whatever you need to post.
Thinking of you and hoping you are okay. Do you have any support, from friends or family members, during this time?
I wish I could give you a hug. I am so sorry for your precious loss.
May the good memories of your life together bring you comfort.
May she pass gently, I'm sure she was a wonderful woman. Such an awful loss, so, sorry again.
Wife of Kentuck
We're all here for you, friend!
I am so sorry 😢
You must cope with both your grief and also worldly matters. I hope you have support from people around you to help you physically, as well as emotionally through the coming days. Hold tight to the Precious memories of your time together and let the love surround you.
You are such an integral part of our community. Know that you're in our thoughts.
I lost my husband just over three years ago and can understand what you are going through. You have my deepest sympathy and my prayers for you finding peace as you work through this tremendous grief.
...someone here. Wishing you strength and serenity.
It can be everything overwhelming all at once. Let friends and family help you through this, and we'll be here, too. Family and friends can be golden in days ahead. No matter how long you grieve, grief is love, too. And it can still be the happy memories of the little things, and your love, that will live beyond this.
and know that we are here for you. Words fail me, my friend. May your darling wife RIP.
My wife of 24 years passed away on November 28, 2009, after a 12-year battle with metastatic melanoma. She was just 51 years old. I know that things will get better for you, but it will take time.
I can’t imagine how you must be feeling right now. Like the world has turned upside down.
Please be kind to yourself. We here at DU send our deepest heartfelt sympathies.
May her memory be a blessing, and may the memory of her love carry through this difficult time.
You are in my thoughts and in my heart. I hope you feel the love, support and healing vibes from your DU family.
any time.
For your loss. Hail the Traveler! May she go forth shining!
May she rest in peace.

I hope you have family and friends nearby. And we're here for you.

That's such terribly sad news.
I just saw mention regarding the sad news on the GD feed. I am so sorry. Of course, you're in shock. A loss like this is heart-wounding.
My deepest condolences. Take care of yourself.
Especially to you, dear Kentuck....
and you are ready we'll be here.
Having experienced this exact event myself in 2019, I feel your pain and loss. My wife and I were married in 1965, right out of high school and she stayed by my side through some very trying times. I am eternally grateful for her life and I'm blessed to have the love of our two adult children.
I sincerely believe you will heal with time and carry on your family tradition of progressive living in her honor.
Please let the DU family know if there's anything we can do.
One day at a time, good friend............ ........
I can't even imagine the pain that you're going through right now. I hope that you have a support system, family and friends that you can rely on. My condolences to you and your family. May your beloved wife rest in peace.
Life can be so heartbreaking.
... you loved her very much. Love is forever. You are not alone.
I hope you find your way to healing and receive comfort and peace on the way...
Along with everyone else who has posted here, I send you my sympathy.
As many have said, you are in shock right now.
Be kind to your soul. And let yourself feel everything you are feeling. There is no right way or wrong way to go through this. There is only the way that you find for yourself.
We are here for you. 24/7. Always.
It is such a huge loss losing a partner in life.
My husband has been gone just over three years now and I'm still out of it in the head.
It seems once you accept the fact that they are not returning (at least in this life) you are able to start taking small steps, very small.
I wish you the very best and please take good care of yourself.
My condolences kentuck.
& recommend.
Try to be thankful for the time that you had together....
many of us were not as blessed as you apparently were....
💔
Sending you and your family and 🙏.
I'm very sad for you, my friend.
You are a beloved DUer
Just trying to find the end of this VERY long thread was quite an exercise. It’s proof of how much you mean to us DUers. You’re not alone, and you don’t mourn alone.
Take the time you need to get through this, and be gentle with yourself. We’ll be here whenever you feel the need to reach out and check in, and/or re-engage.
That's a huge loss... give yourself time...
May she rest in peace...
Of course you are having trouble processing everything.
All of DU is holding you in our broken hearts.
I've walked that path. Take what time you need. Feel what you're feeling.( I tried to put on the "brave face" and it damn near broke me.) We will be here for you when you're ready. You will get through this.
We're here when you need us.
No words.
Condolences.
I lost my husband a year ago in May……I will never get over it, I miss him so much.
