      Husband a victim of a medical mistake; died as a result of negligence

      Treatments

      Grief Counseling Considering
      Bunch of old people sitting around crying - not at all what I expected
    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Partner/Spouse

      My Husband was a victim of medical malpractice of a major hospital.

      Treatments

      Crying Working / Worked
      I find myself crying in the early morning when I wake up and in the evening when I go to bed. Sometimes I cry during the day too.
      Getting Angry Working / Worked
      It helps sometimes, not always. I can't direct my anger at the people who did this - I filed a lawsuit on his behalf
      Grief Counseling Not Working
      I went to one group and all they did was sit around and cry - it was a mess!
      Keeping Busy Working / Worked
      I went back to work to keep my mind occupied.
      Music Working / Worked
      I immerse myself in music on weekends to make them go faster.
      Pets Working / Worked
      We were raising 3 cats as our children; Douglas loved them dearly and made me promise to care for them if something happened to him.
      Prayer Somewhat Helpful
      Although I am still very angry at God for taking my Douglas!
      Remembering Working / Worked
      I look back at our photos and remember all of the wonderful times we had together
      Time Not Working
      All time does is remind me how alone I am and how I am going to get through this life without my hubby.
