I can't believe we are now on another thread, where has all the time gone ?

Yes it's all very sad' I keep thinking of my aunt lying somewhere and she can't see today. If you understand what I mean. My cousin lives about 40 mins away and we don't see her often, but she is lovely. She has no siblings to help her out either which I think is also sad for her at this time.but my cousin is grateful that she has had this past week to speak to her mum. I wish I had had that chance with my mum thanks all

pink, I had a lot of signs from my mum and dad when my mum died, it is a great comfort.

Hello all.

Sorry I've not been around of late to see you all and give comfort.

Today my Dad came to see us, me. He held me so tight and it was all that I could do not to sob my heart out as I gave him a card for him to put at Mum's resting place. It's like your heart is going to blow up. I was numb and don't remember it all all, just the loneliness of having my heart torn out right in front of my eyes, and I'm frozen to the spot and can't move eyes.

Anyway, I need to go and put my boy to bed... he's poorly, always at Christmas. Always. Back soon. xxx

hugs for you mouseface xx

In case everyone is too busy to post tomorrow I would like to wish you all the best Xmas possible and for the latest posters on this thread. I hope you will all think of your lost loved ones and have a little smile over something you did together. Thankyou everyone for helping me personally over the months.xxx

TO MY MUM

MUM I miss and love you so much, but I am the person I am because of you. Xmas is not the same now you aren't here but you are always with me in my heart, now aunty Eileen has just joined you I can imagine you both having a good old chat ! Forever thinking of you, I wish I could see you one more time at least. But I am sending you a hug and hope you can feel it's from me, love you mum, your daughter, Lin xxxx

thats lovely Lin xx

I'm working tomorrow till 6pm, but will probably be on here later on

everyone

I cried last night for my Dad, and again tonight. I miss him so much, the smart-arse. He loved Christmas - the candles, log fire, music etc. Such a clever and dignified man.

I adored him. My heart goes out to you all xxx

Luis me too, watching Bridget Jones sobbing because I won't spend the day with her. she also loved christmas. it's hard isnt it

It is super

I have a "Dad" candle to light. It's one I bought him years ago, I only light it rarely. Do you have anything like that?

the same thing actually a personalised candle that says mum,love like starlight never dies. the season feels kind of flat without her although I still do all the things I did before if not more

Ah super that's beautiful.

When I light my candles tonorrow evening, I'll think of you and your mum x

tomorrow, sorry

and your dad too

I went to the cemetery yesterday, first time I've had to go there to visit my dad at Christmas. I've left some lovely flowers with holly and pine cones. After a good cry I sang him his favourite carol.

When I got there, on our way back from our break away, there were two wreaths already on the grave. My mum and sis had made a joint visit and pre arranged wreaths with the florist and obviously I hadn't been included. Very sad that they seem to forget I exist sometimes, or that is what it feels like at times anyway.

Anyway, on a brighter note, merry Christmas to you all x

Hi Candy it's weird how people don't react how you think they will. I will be going to the crem tomorrow. Although my brother has been today and there are still the flowers there that I put last week. He said some are dead but he didn't like to move them as he didn't put them there ! Anyway I have fresh ones to take and some more Xmas little bits like sprayed fir cones etc, just to make it look a bit festive
And I hope you too will be able to enjoy Christmas if it's possible.

Lighting Dad's candle now.

Love to you all xxx

Just to say thinking of you all and to you new members it's so very hard but as mummy lin said there are times in the day you will have a memory and maybe a smile.
They are with us but I also know this means nothing. As I too know my mum is around us but my god I miss my mother Christmas. Love you lovely lady. I fly the flag for you. We get on the best we can but my god You are missed xx

Love to all on the thread. Wishing you all the best Christmas it can be.
Thanks for all your support xxx

Am watching the Carol service and it's making me incredibly sad

Can I join you. It was my mum's funeral on the 23rd and I just can't get into the Christmas spirit. My dh has been great but I don't have the energy to do anything. We had been caring for her for 10 months and though it was a release for her it just feels awful. They will be happy tomorrow but I just want to run away

Oh how sad for you minsmum you must be feeling distraught. It is sad when anyone dies, but somehow it seems even worse when it's the time that families celebrate together. I hope you are surrounded by love from your family and that it will help you get through the day.

Merry Christmas girls!

thanks for always being here

sorry for everyone feeling sad today, am thinking of you all xx

Hope you have the best day you can today. I feel for you and we are together. Group hug guys xx

Thinking of you ssd and lots of love n hugs to you and your family xx
