Jean: I"m so sorry about your mom,my mom died Dec 27,2012. My brother and I aren't close so I know what that's like, sometimes you just can't have a relationship with a sibling. Please don't be too hard on yourself, as you have made an attempt to get along with your sister.

Yes. Sheila B. My mother sounds a lot like yours. I have tried to be there for my sister since our mother passed last Feb. She has not been nice to me. I am also on my own. Mom left me in charge. I am not a punching bag. We have not spoken since she told me to go to hell a few days before Christmas. We never have gotten along so this is nothing new. Onward through the fog.

I love that Tracey! I am hungry reading what you cooked LOL! This is also the first year not being with my mom for my b day, holiday's, and for the New Year.  I cooked a big meal today, and I made her favorite cake for Xmas. Normally we would have picked her up and brought her to our house for dinner as usual. I sure miss her voice and her smile. I think she'd be glad we kept the party going.

Happy New Year Everyone! 
That is so weird to say, because this was the first time I have never heard my Momma say that to me.  However, I am determined I will continue the tradition on for my family.  I cooked pork chops, black eyed peas and corn bread and took it to my Dad's house so they could have the same meal my Mom made every New Years Day.

The pain of this first holiday without my mother has been compounded by the silence from family. The ones that claimed they cared the most, let me down and what hurts worse, let her down. I hope she can't see how they have been and how much it has hurt me. She doesn't deserve that, she loved them too much. I have been patient and given the benefit of the doubt and chance after chance as she taught me to do. But now my heart can no longer take the pain of making an effort with them, only to be hurt. I had to accept it when she was alive for her. She accepted the selfishness of others as their weakness and to rise above it. Two wrongs don't make a right. I no longer have to do that, I have changed. Now, I will go forward into a new year, with a new attitude and strength on my own. I hope everyone here has gotten through the holidays as well as they could. Has anyone else given up on family that has let you down and left you to deal with your grief alone, without any support from them during the holidays?

Hello Everybody. I want to wish all of you a Happy New Year. May this year bring peace to all of us . May our pain, sorrow and grief find natural, healing outlets. May God, nature and the Universe bless all of us.

My mom died on March 18th, 2011.  This was my third Christmas alone, totally alone.  How many more years do I have to endure this?
