And another Christmas without my beautiful son.
No one will mention him, no one will see the presents I bought him and donated to a charity, no one will be there when I take his Christmas cake and nip of whisky to the cemetery today and no one will see how I really feel tomorrow.
He would be 32, that's 31 Chrismas' without him. His twin sister doesn't remember him my other DC never knew him although they know about him.
I can cope most of the year, but Christmas is for all the family, and he's not there. I should have a daughter in law, more grandchildren.
So today I'll visit him, give him flowers, cake and whisky...tell him all the news, what his young nieces and nephews are getting from Santa and cry when I have to leave him again. Then I'll come home, put on the "happy face" .
I'll also say a prayer tonight for all the other parents who also have a "happy face" and a sad heart.
