Christmas is not happening.....

in my house this year. After losing my husband on Christmas Day I don't intend ever having another Christmas. I intend spending the day at home on my own.

Hi tinks I am very sorry hear of the lose of your husband. Christmas can be a lovely time but a very difficult one for some. Have you any family to spend a low key day with? X

Hi Tinks.

I can't imagine how you feel. Loosing a loved one at such a special time of year must be heart breaking but I don't think your husband would want you to be alone and unhappy at this time of year. We will all be here just the same on Christmas day so you won't be alone.

Best wishes Kenny xxx

Hi tinks

Hi tinks

Christmas can be a very hard time. If you want to spend it alone then do but use the site or ring a friend if you need to let out how you are feeling. I spent one Christmas alone with a cheese sandwich and the day came and went. Don't put pressure on yourself to do anything you don't want to but please reach out if you need to someone will be here love eve x

I feel for you I really do...it's my OH 30th today but it also been 7 years since my mum died - I wasn't close to her but mum is mum...what we have tended to do is celebrate the next day...don't feel that you have to spend Christmas alone particularly if it's because you don't want to spoil it for anyone else because of what Christmas now means to you - I admit I feel guilty for tainting OH birthday, even if it is not exactly my fault...Remember there will always be someone here

take care
