One week later

Hi,

One week later, we might have already starved to death.

** ** **

Is this sentence correct, to mean that "If one more week had been passed without us being saved, we might have starved to death."?

If it is correct, how about "One week after" or "After one week"?

Hello! Overall your sentence is good! Nice and complex :-) A few points though: One week later, we might have already starved to death.

    If you want to use "already", you need to give another time e.g. ..might have already starved to death by the time they arrived.
    I wouldn't use "already" in this sentence.
