Harder at this time of year

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say I feel for all of you who have lost loved ones recently It hurts to lose them at any time of year but I do feel it becomes harder the nearer it is to Christmas. I lost my mother nearly twelve years ago. She was i  hospital all over Christmas and passed away not long after. Then just over two years ago I lost my father who lived in Canada about this time of year. Though we do our best to enjoy Christmas I have to admit its just not the same anymore. Christmas is a time we consider to be a family time and when someone is missing it just doesnt feel right. 

Our lost loved ones are always in our thoughts but never more so than at this time of year.

Sending kind thoughts your way, Brian

  • So true Brian this is my first Christmas with out my wonderful mother and my wonderful gran miss them both so much . My gran passed away 23 june then my mother passed away 2 August it’s been such rollercoaster that only way can describe it . I nearly lost my sister over the weekend I don’t want 2 say 2 much but she took over dose Saturday nite she was intensive care she had 50 50 chance of savouring she was sent on ward Monday then she was send home Tuesday . I really wish my mother was here :( its so hard sometimes trying 2 be the strong all of the time :( 

  • Hi Gemini,

    I bet this Christmas will be hard for you this year. But there is one thought that pops up every year and that is the thought that I know My mother would not want me to be unhappy she is no longer here and she would expect me to try my best to be happy. But as you say it's so very hard. Take care and sending best wishes your way, Brian.
