Why is life so hard?

[SPARKLER1clausiscomingtotown]

I have had a pretty good year all in all. This past month has just been so difficult. My stepdad has just come out of hospital after a really, really worrying three weeks. (See other thread). My husband's great-auntie died on Tuesday and we have her funeral to go to on Wednesday in Bristol. Tonight I have had a phone call from my family in Wales to say my Uncle has died this afternoon. He has been very sick for 2 years now and deteriorateed quickly over the last few months but I am still feeling really sad. It has been really testing and I am feeling really drained.

Poor you
All over Christmas too.
Hope you are feeling better.

Thanks SM. x

Thank you so much to all the really, lovely, kind people who listened to me on this thread. It's been a hell of a month for me and, although exhausted, I am going to fight and pull myself through. New start tomorrow. It's gonna be a better year (I really hope!). You have been true friends.
