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.

Hitting me

My daughter did MAID last Tuesday and I've been holding up okay.But just now the Christmas convoy (trucks all lit up that do an organized drive through our small town) went by and suddenly I just started crying, thinking how my girl won't be around to have these small moments. And not that she would have - she wasn't a huge Christmas or celebration person. So I don't know why I'm sitting here crying about it.Oh this is going to hurt a lot :-(See More
