So sorry mate. Must be such a shock still.

I lost my wife four years ago to cancer too. Fishing for me was and is incredibly life giving when the grief can be overwhelming. My daughter and I would go overnight together which I think helped us both.

I know we've never met but if you ever want to talk to someone a bit further down to road or let off steam drop me a PM and I'll give you a call.

All the best

Thoughts are with you we did same for our mom no fuss no funeral it wasn't what see would have wanted,I think about her everyday and have good and bad days miss her so much,she done so much for us even though she was blind and deaf she was always there to help us.
I struggle with flash backs when I was there as she passed her away,her final communication to me was when she had fluid in her throat cleared and they lowered her bed down and she struggled to breath and I lifted it back up and she raised her thumb as if to say thanks and that was the last we had of communication with her,although I got my partner down to hospital and her daughter to come and say their goodbyes a few days before and she always got on with my partner and her daughters and she was squeezing their hands as if to say she knew they were there.
I really feel for you mate it's a long hard process but it will never go away but it gets easier
