Christmas is harder than I had anticipated

Information

Christmas is harder than I had anticipated

My Dad passed in September 2013 and my Mum January 2014.  I have been trying to prepare myself for the emotions that I may feel in the lead up to Christmas but it is more of a roller coaster than I thought it would be.  I jump from acceptance to being philosophical to utter heartbreak to tears to body shaking sobs to (and this is the way I am feeling at the moment) anger.  Not sure which direction I will take next but if you are feeling that this time of the year is rocking your world even more, feel free to share the heavy burden...

I hope that you have made it through the holiday.....

I did not think that I would my soul mate and I decided that we needed to get a new fiberoptic tree this year and when I pulled out the old one, I thought my heart was just going to stop, it was so painful that I actualy was going to die...

I am sorry to hear that you had to go through this, and Joe there is no wrong thing to say..

God Bless

Hi JO, You're not saying anything wrong at all.  I am sorry for your losses.  I hope that you have friends or family or both there with you to help you through the tough times.  I know that even with friends and family there, it can be very lonely.
