I am so sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Just want to say how sorry i am to read this. I do want to add though to please don't get rid of your husbands' belongings quickly; my mom did (I was 18 when my dad died) and regretted it instantly. We have VERY few items of clothing left and I wish we had a few more favorites (he was known for plaid shirts!).
Health wise everyone else has already said it - mammo, heart stuff, etc.
I would caution you not to make any major decisions, like someone said, getting rid of items etc, if needed, put things out of sight if painful.
Also, due to the stress some of your labs, and test results could be skewed, I know you feel a sense of urgency to make sure you are healthy, but take your time.
If you can, rely on one or two people to be your go to person, let them know that you may need them at anytime, I'm sure they will make sure to provide you with extra support and will be grateful you trust them to be there for you.
All of the holidays can be so difficult, and you will know how to honor and remember your dh, and include the kids in what you do (if you do stockings etc, what you want to do). Grief support groups are wonderful at navigating these milestones.
Come to this board too whenever .

I read your post a few days ago and didn’t have time to respond but I’ve been thinking about you and your family a lot these past few days. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine the waves of grief and panic that must be washing over you. Please know that I’m keeping you and your family in my daily prayers and sending positive thoughts.
Dh and I had been fighting a bit lately until I heard about your Dh who is the same age as us. It made me realize how stupid all our arguments are. Many hugs to you.

I’m so sorry to hear this. How devastating. I hope you have friends and family to lean on. I’d start with a full physical and make sure you are up to date on your mammogram and paps. A skin check is a good idea too. Hope you have a lot of support IRL. Sending my love.

So very very sorry. I have three friends who recently lost their husbands. They are walking this painful road with strength and grace they never knew they had, as will you. Again, so very sorry.
I'm so sorry to hear this Tara!
Please do not hesitate to ask others for help for anything--kids, carpool, lawn care, advice, etc. People want to help in many ways. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
