Yes the first festive period is always very hard but any time when family leave and I am on my own I find very hard, I just hate living alone and doubt I will ever get used to it.
But the thing is we have no choice we have to do it even though we don’t want to, I am proud that I have survived this long (18 months) without my husband being here and living on my own because I miss him so much and still cry most days but I am doing it I’m surviving for him because I know when my time comes I will be with him again xxx

Georgi, without hurting our daughter id rather the festive period i just spend at ho.e on my own ( ive written that, but i know i dont really mean it) Just wished there was someone just say to me, come round mine for a few hrs, but everyone as their own lives and dont want a reminder (me) of what weve losted ( my hubby)
Yes yesterday I was thinking that I don’t like Christmas. It has been two years since my husband died 18 Nov. Last two Christmas s have been very tough.
Just me and my son. I put his photo on the table the first time because like to say we are thinking about you and hated it
The second one was worse as I didn’t have the energy to get it all done. After a year of struggle. Now it is coming up again. Being lonely feels horrible. Christmas is such a stressor.
