Losing a partner in the same gender relationship is every bit as devastating as losing a husband or wife, you may experience all the same feelings as the surviving partner of a marriage or other heterosexual partnership.  Losing a friend or member of your family is also devastating, but can you count on the same support if you are Lesbian or Gay?
