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

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

I've just been to see her off. She didn't want the fuss of a funeral, so she's had a direct cremation instead. I stood outside the crematorium and watched her final journey from there.

So sorry to hear this Simon. Words are pointless. I pray there is some relief for you soon. Your wife would want you to be out there fishing, doing what you love.
To the rest of you. Some very honest words written in this thread. I salute you all.
Stay strong, all of you xx

Sorry for your very recent loss of your wife..
At least here on CF you have fellow minded anglers that are/have experienced your pain to help navigate your grief and personal recovery over time.

I lost my wife two weeks ago after a very short fight with cancer. I only fish rivers, and the season can't come quick enough for me. Although coming home in the early hours to an empty house is going to take some getting used to.

That's very true mate my mom would be happy knowing we are still doing what we love,like I said the last year or so has been so difficult I was told I had depression as I hadn't grieved properly I had a few meltdowns including at work I do think I went back to work too soon but it would have been worse at home as I still live in the home we shared with her.
No one knows how much we miss her but life does go on

When my mom passed away the first sessions I got fishing I felt uneasy and asked to myself what the hell I was doing there, but I continued to go and after a couple of months I felt glad to be on the bank chasing carp. In my opinion it helped me to overcome the grief.
In the same way fishing helps me to be more relaxed and take the everyday stress off.
