When someone dies the government keeps you busy with calls to be made and forms to fill out and people to see. in my situation my husband has died. He was the one that always took care of these thing when our parents died and never let on that there was anything to it. I have faithful friends that are helping me through the worse of it. Thank God for His Church that is commanded to look out for widows and orphans.
Each time you have to call or see someone for the first time after the death of your spouse is terrible. Each time you have to say that "He is dead" or "he died" it sticks in you throat and tears start to flow. You brace yourself for their reply. It doesn't get easier; at least not yet.
When i was in the hosptial the nurses knew i was a new widow but they were harsh and unsympathetic
to me and my pain. I had one nurse that took the time to sit with me and let me tell her about Chuck. I very much appriciated her doing that. It helped me a great deal to be able to talk about him. But i never knew when somone would come into my room and find me crying. So i try to think other things to get my mind off my sorrows. But it was so hard to do that. When i was in the hospital before he got sick i would look forward to his coming. He would give me a bath and wash my hair. He was so gental and kind.
