Hi @Keith68,
Sorry to hear about your health battles.
I’d recommend coming off all social media. Your true friends will update you in real time. You (most of us) don’t have the headspace for all the fake rubbish people post on social media. Delete it & get one negative thing out of your life.
I belong a spiritual thing there or I would leave. Consultant seemed impressed with me today.
It’s been dark, really windy and very wet here in Scotland! Wasn’t planning on going out anyway, too old and my sister starts chemo
Good luck with the chemo with your sister. Just saw something on Tik Tok that reminded me of my childhood and mum. Like most on here it’s not easy looking forward to anything. The moment you lose someone close, then your life’s over too.
Thank you. My mum would hate me to feel that my life is over because I have lost her, she will want me to go on and do things like study law. I’m sure your mum would feel the same, she would want you to go on otherwise your mum’s time on this earth would have been for nothing, she brought you into this world for a reason
I’m having memories of when I was a child, I saw the wombles on Tik tol, I had a cuddly womble toy as a kid. It went everywhere with me, today can’t stop thinking about it and feeling tearful. If dieing meant being united with mum, I would take it.
You could go on eBay and see if someone is selling one?
I don’t think your mam would want you to do that though, i get you though sometimes it’s easier to think them thoughts than the thoughts of living for another how ever many years without them, I used to think I’d get signs they were all around me but in two years I’ve had nothing at all, I used to want to see mam in a reflection or whatever but I’m starting to think now wherever they are the last place they wanna be is back here, ive a total different outlook now i just they’ve gone and that’s that as sad as it is, I’m alone with my grief because unless you’ve been through it you can’t understand
Couple of things about that, I did a spiritual thing on Messenger 1st grandma came through and then followed by mum. They were very close so it would make sense they would be close in the afterlife.
Saw autopsy on Debbie Reynolds, Debbie Reynolds was the famous mum of Carrie Fisher who passed on a plane. Within 2 days of losing her daughter her mum followed. Once again they were very close, Debbie said Carrie needs me and according to the autopsy mum went peacefully in her sleep as mum was content she had been united with her daughter. My mum went peacefully in her sleep too as if she was content. If grandma came to collect her then mum would be.
Like you I would love a sign or something. Here I am on the brink of a New Year, on my own.
Just because we not had a sign, doesn’t mean the afterlife doesn’t exist. I wouldn’t want to come back to this world either, I hate it! money, greed, corruption. Animals treat animals better then we do. If it wasn’t for Myeloma I could be tempted to get a dog. A dog will give you unconditional love, I probably would get more love from a dog then my own family, if you can call em that. Me and mum had a Yorkshire Terrier once. It was heartbreaking when he had to be put to sleep because of a tumor.
Best wishes to everyone for 2025 and I hope you find the strength to make new plans and new lives, never forgetting those we have lost x
I believe there’s something else I just used to always believe I’d have some sign they were close to me, people say white feathers are a sign I’m not so sure prob because I want more than feathers. But that ain’t gonna happen !
Ive a cocker spaniel and she’s just lush, they get you through so much. Love you unconditionally
A really struggle with new year especially after losing my dad and aunty within year of each other wife had misscarriage and lost another aunty on xmass eve
Just saw a video on FB had to share, a bird picking up a fish on dry land and putting it back in the water and walking away. A act of kindness, I think animals give us hope and so much more. In a lot of ways they are better then us.
I watch so many wildlife shows etc, we can all learn a lot from animals, it’s remarkable how they have to adapt to us evolving, I prefer animals to people imho, they only kill to feed unlike some evil humans of time
They will us to go on! as life goes on and is all around us. I remember that documentary where they used robot animals with built in cameras narrated by David Tennant. They was shocked by the monkeys how they treated the robot monkey. The monkeys thought it had died and showed empathy and remorse. Animals are so smart and intelligent and know what’s happening around them.
25 will start like 24 ended for me, not much will change for me on that front.
@ everyone
Do you post in other threads even when it’s a partner they lost ? I thought loss is loss no matter what ? but obviously I can’t really relate to them losing a partner but obviously I can regards loss. I not really wished anyone a happy New Year because there’s not much to be happy about regards hospital visits for me or Malcolm. It’s just something you have to get through and hope for the best. It makes you very humble though and it does change the way you think.
Sending hugs and thinking of you as we both have a difficult start to the new year. So sending you love to get through the difficult months ahead
