[whatisforteamum]

I think it.will be harder than Christmas.I worked all Christmas and my not so Dh ruined Xmas eve by being drunk and abusive.Now I've had time to think it will be weird going into 2018 without my dear Dad.Like.were leaving him behind when intact he left us.Anyone else.feel like this?

Thank you, whatisforteamum. It's been so hard, especially as everyone (including the hospice nurse) really thought she'd make it into the new year, so although she was very ill, it was still a shock. I ought to take the Christmas tree down (I'm usually straight in there after NYD) but I just can't stand the thought of losing the light this year.

It's so tough isn't it? I still think you did well to function at all this Christmas

Well its now April 2018 & lost my Dear Dad on New Years Day 2015( ive been devastated from that day to this, utter shock Dad was 58🙏 i go to work look after the house Love my DD aged 7 with all the Love & care i can give i suppose when others look in( in doing "okay" and i am But....The real hurt tears u apart..i hope to see the Light above The Rabbit Hole!! I feel your pain & what i will say is that Love is Forever & the reason even though so so difficult that we keep striving on is that our Loved ones are giving us this strength...You are never alone God Bless you❤❤

Bless. You.58 is so young.My cu is almost that age.Do you mind me asking how he died?My Dr was.so very I'll it was.a.relief when he died.Strangely enough I felt worse at the six month bit.I don't know about others but I feel as if my Dad knows what im.doing..watching over me if that makes sense.Do you think perhaps you need to see the GP?.I agree that we loved them dearly Martha. Xx

Lord, I feel you..
It's 2024.. I lost my mum in February and it's been the hardest toughest longest yet shortest year of my life.
I moved in with my boyfriend in January and lost her in February... He isn't helping me at all. With anything. Housework...my grief... even with money.
It's made me question this relationship altogether. It's now 31st December...new years eve... and he's just gone to his mum's with his family, didn't invite me and said he'd be back before 12.. just now he's said he wants to do the countdown with his mum... but he'll be back real soon.
I can't believe it.
1st new years without my mum..and he literally leaves me all alone.
I had a small family. Without mum, it's just my brother, who dislikes me and has become someone I feel I don't know anymore... my partner knew I'd be alone if he did this.... so the fact that yours asked you to come is a beautiful big thing... regardless of how you'll handle it. The fact he wants and needs you there says it all
I truly have never felt so alone, scared and heartbroken in my life. And I've had it rough!
One good thing...is my cat who is my world. He's name is Ali and he literally is the greatest. He's just turned 14 and I'm so so scared I'll lose him too.. he's struggled this year...and I don't know what I'll do without him.
I'm not looking forward to anything coming.
