Christmas and bereavement.

[headinhands]

I've lost 2 close family members in relatively a short space of time and have another close relative in end of life care. Christmas is making me feel worse! It's all the 'happy/jolly/merry' stuff and if feels so hollow. I'm doing what I have to, putting up decorations but I've put minimal effort into presents and still have sent a single card ☺️. It's just making me feel lonely even though I'm surrounded by people. I wish more people spoke about this difficult element of Christmas.

That's lovely 2017. Thanks for sharing that.

Thinking of you all tonight. I'm finding it harder than Xmas. Feel like I'm leaving her behind somehow....

Miss i get that. Another year. Feels much further away as the numbers change. 💐 and I shall raise a glass to those I miss and wish (oh how I wish) were here tonight.
