Thinking of you all today currently sat in Mums room cuddling her dressing gown, with a rotten headache. Been reading my journal entries for Christmasses past . Just me and my brother today, no Christmas dinner and minimal gifts. Goodness knows what we’re going to do all afternoon!
Happy Xmas to you all hurting today . It’s a tough one . I’ve just been up to my nannas grave as that’s where we are gonna our mums ashes also . That was hard but I spoke . Going my sisters shortly I don’t wanna spoil it as I know she’s hurting but I just don’t feel any joy and everyone is telling “ be strong “ what is that ? I want to be with my mum today of all days
Woke up and started crying. Can’t stop. He should be here. I need him here.
to everyone.
Awww ulma so sorry . Thinking of you all . I’ve got a lot of anger inside me today and my sister as just told me she’s set a place for mum with a drink and everything . The minute I get in her house it will break my heart seeing that and I’ve told her it will
Yes love to you all, thinking of you all. I’m trying to put on a brave face but missing Dad so much.
Oh no, that will be difficult. I guess she feels better for doing it, but it’s something she should have discussed with you.
Venting a bit. I hate how people expect you to be as usual and care about things as usual. I can’t. I’m not the same and I will never be, part of me is gone. You’d think friends would understand that, but no. Frustrating.
Just done my ironing out of desperation of something to do. Feels so very quiet and empty here. There are only so many cups of tea i can drink. I know some of you who are having to face family festivities might say it sounds like bliss, but time is crawling past soooo slowly.
I’m alone today and it feels like time doesn’t move at all. Can’t seem to get myself to do anything, though, which doesn’t help.
How are you all doing? Brother has jjust gone so now im alone with my thoughts. Cant believe its STILL only 7pm. At this rate i may have to go to bed at 8pm just to make it stop.
I just got home from Mum’s and burst into tears. We miss Dad so much and I found some of his voicemails which I’ve saved how is everyone else?
My heart is aching for my mom. I am sat in my kitchen sobbing. Today has just felt empty.
The pain keeps coming in waves - now im on my own it feels liked im being sliced right down the middle and i dont know what to do with myself. My closest friends havent even messaged to see if im ok today, or that theyre thinking of me
Christmas, life is never ever going to be the same again. The pain is unbearable.
I know what you mean mate my closest mates I thought would care today but not a word off one of them . I know they have their own families and lives but I know I would be there the other way around
Today I’ve cried literally And the moment I walked into my sisters and seen my mums place sat and a baileys I just sobbed like a baby which I was uncomfortable with
Thinking of you all x
It’s been a weird day today cried myself to sleep last night got to sleep about 3 am my 12 year old woke me at 6.30 to open presents she was so excited I just cried went around to my mum’s to see dad at 12.30 he opened his special presents I had made and I could see the tears of love, I had a throw made for his bed of pictures of him and mum on he loved it hence the tears, then I was straight into the kitchen to finish the dinner I could hear her saying to me thanks Lisa you’ve done good today, I set a place for her at the table and we made a toast Im staying over tonight so dad isn’t by himself I’m so glad today is over xx
Everything has felt empty and colourless here too. At least the day is over soon, but I’m on the verge of crying again, so I guess there will be another round of that.
My dad has just gone home. He was really emotional when he left our house. I can’t stop crying. I miss my mom so much it just hurts so bad. I cried myself to sleep yesterday.
You’ve all done so well, getting through the day .
