shite man. I'd be so lost if that happened to me. Take time, don't rush back to life too fast, and know that you're strong enough to handle this.

So deeply sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers go out to you and especially your young children. I hope you have some family that can assist you in this time of trouble. I know the loss of your wife will be incredibly difficult, but you have to try to remain strong for your children. They may need some help dealing with this.
Christ this is emotional.

As a child who lost his mother when he was 10, I agree with the words of encouragement that you will get through this. It will not be an easy road, as I watched my father raise 3 kids on his own. I truly believe God does not give you things that you cannot handle. Right now, focus on your kids and do your best to raise them in a way your wife would be proud of. They may not act like it, but they need you more than ever. Stay strong my friend, things will get better.

Prayers sent up for you man.
I don’t know why God let’s bad things happen to good people. It’s one of those things I don’t understand. I just lost my brother a few weeks ago. He lets the rain fall on the just and the unjust.
All that being said, never question God’s love for you and your family. He knows exactly what you are going through. He will give you comfort in your time of loss and He will give you peace eventually about this time in your life. You need to turn to God and ask for his help during this time.
Be there for your kids and make sure that they know that you love them unconditionally. Also, you need to get you and your family in a Christian Bible-believing church. Your kids are going to need a positive environment especially.
What I have learned is that life is short, regardless if we live to be 18, 55, or 85. Life is precious, all the material things we chase after are not. We don’t know what God’s plan is for our life and what turns He is going to take us down. But I do know that He is in control, He loves us, and He knows exactly what we need. And He will take care of you and your family if you turn to Him.
Hope this helps.

Damn. There is no why. Randomness happens in life.
You should help your kids focus on the fond memories and harbor no regrets. The experience must bring you all closer. Your bond is stronger now than it has ever been. That’s the gift.
Mourn. Cry with them. Share the emotion. Eventually, start talking about coping strategies. Sleep in the same room for awhile. Hug them, keep crying with them, and find a way to honor her life.
Hang in there. You’ll get through this in time.

No words I can come up with will help you in reality, but my heart breaks for you.

I'm sorry. I wish you didn't know this pain. When you're ready, counseling can help. Peace to you, your children, and all who knew and loved her.

Like the others…just speechless. I’m truly sorry for what you’re going through. Scares me to think.
But you can do more than you give yourself credit for. One day, one hour, one minute at a time
Praying for you sir

One of the greatest gifts in life is for family, friends, and strangers to pray for you when you are in need. I am sure there are thousands sending prayers from their household to yours. You are not along in having to battle the grieving loss of a loved one. We care and the Creator cares so be strong for your family. Trust and lean on the Lord in the coming days ahead, God Bless, Amen

I understand somewhat where you are coming from. I lost my firstborn 8 month old daughter a few months ago and my wife has become very sick from her pregnancy and for the time being is no longer able to work. my advice, lean on family and friends. They want to help you more than you know. Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for the loss of your child.
And to the husband who lost his wife

I was there 8 years ago.
My kids were 12, 10, and 4
It’s difficult to say the least. There are no words for the grief coming in the next weeks/months.
My advice to you now is to take it head on. Try not to replace it or dull it. Let you kids see you grieve and help them grieve also. In my opinion, the more everyone accepts what’s happened, feels it, the better off they will be in the long run.
My sincere condolences. If you would like to communicate more directly just let me know.

she is laying there dead on the floor. She is white and ice cold, I immediately knew she was gone.
I found my mother that way a few months ago. Take some comfort in knowing that it probably happened quickly and there was no suffering other than feeling sick.
Prayers for you and your children. Kids are stronger than you think and they’ll get through it. You have to keep it together, though.
Sorry for your loss, man.

I am sorry I am sorry for your loss as well. Hopefully it gets better with time. I am sure we will never be completely over it.

Prayers for you and your family.

I’m so sorry for our loss. Sending love and prayers; I can’t imagine your pain. It’s hard sometimes to accept help from friends and family, but you’re actually blessing them by accepting it. As much as it’s possible to do so, try not to overwhelm yourself by thinking long term. Get through today. Praying for mercy and grace for your family.
