Thanks YG, i have lit one for my Grandad who sadly wont be with us for another xmas after this.

Thinking of you and the girls this xmas. xxx

DumbledoresFairy · 17/12/2006 12:27

Lit one for you YG.

I don't know what I could say to comfort you but I have a feeling that there will be many moments like this as you go through the first 12 months without him. This will be one of the worst though. Next year, should be easier.

ImaVeryMerryChristmasFairy · 17/12/2006 12:31

I've lit one as well YG. You have amazed me with your strength and dignity over the past few months. Your girls are lucky to have such a wonderful Mummy. I'll be thinking of you this Christmas.

I have wondered how you were doing deep down. I know you will carry on and have a great Xmas for your girls but it will all be bittersweet.

Hugs to you my dear - I will light a candle.

don't think I've "spoken" to you on here before, but I have seen some of your threads. Wish you strength to get through this first Xmas without him.

Hello Yorkiegirl,

It's bloody massive, Yorkie. Losing Nigel.
I still can't imagine how you're feeling. I can't equate it to the loss of my child. Nigel was an 'existing' person with a family, whereas my son wasn't. He was a 'potential.'

Check in to mnet over The Silly Season, please. Or CAT me. I'd love to tslk to you.

Have just lit a candle for Nigel.

You have such great strength YG.

Maybe Nigel is helping you cope in this way!

You and your girls are in my thoughts this christmas.

They'll get you through it.

QuootiepiesChristmasName · 18/12/2006 02:30

How do I light one? xxx

alibauble · 18/12/2006 02:38

I've lit mine and will try to keep it going. Thanks YG and sending you my heartfelt best wishes for you and the family at this time of year.

mears · 18/12/2006 09:39

Just click on a candle that is not lit and follow the instructions.
