I know the pain you feel on these lonely days. It’s bad every day but this time of year it’s 10 times worse. I too am on my own with my cat, Peggy. Only for her I don’t think I’d be here at all. The tears fall a lot and I’m just longing to hear Ray’s voice and miss his presence so much here. I’m scared to live the rest of my life on my own without him. It will be 10 weeks this coming Friday since he went and I’ll always be heartbroken. People do fall away after a while. My sister lives 10 mins away but hasn’t bothered to even ask if I’m alive, let alone ok. So hurtful. Anyway take care and to all on this site whose hearts are breaking. At least we can post on here how we truly feel

That’s a good point about being scared to live the rest of my life without my wife. It’s something I’m having to think about even though I really don’t want to. I have the dog and two cats and my dog is a really good, if at times annoying companion, but nothing seems to take away that emptiness of being alone after 40 years. I have had several invitations to spend Christmas with people but I really don ‘t want to, so I will spend the day at least alone, and take the dog on a favourite walk we used to all go on together. The day will pass even if the emptiness doesn’t. Best wishes to everyone.

Good night to you too. I hope we all sleep well tonight despite the demands of Christmas.

I hope everyone gets through this time of the year the best you can and do whatever feels right. This is my second Christmas without the love of my life and I didn’t cope at all, I am going to our daughters tomorrow until after New Year and unlike last year I am looking forward to having family time. Hoping you can all have a peaceful time.

Good Morning on this lovely clear start to the day.
This time last year I was in the Carribean starting our cruise with my darling John.
We had such a wonderful Xmas and were so very much in love with each other.
Little did we know he only had weeks into the new year.
For so many on here it will be a sad time of reflection and feeling alone, when we feel that everyone else, other than us are having wonderful times.
Majority of us will open presents alone and some maybe eating alone so tomorrow is a must for posting on here to feel connected to people in the same situation.
I’m lucky that I’m with family but doesn’t mean that I feel connected. Like everyone on here we all simply want to have our loved one with us and until you go through our loss no one can truly understand how we feel so we need to keep posting and reading.
