several times, screaming and weeping, a few times in front of my then wife, but many more were alone. Do you have any grief/loss groups in your area you can go to, believe me, no one there will laugh at you. I wish I had gone sooner, years sooner. I have found much support there, you might as well. I also lurker at many pet loss sites for a good while, rainbowbridge.com was the first one I went to, but there are many more now. I am sorry that you husband cannot give you the support you need and want now.
