I lost my mom back in 2008 and it's been tough but the holidays have always been worse for me. With Christmas right around the corner it's been so hard to cope. I'm trying to stay strong and enjoy the holidays like my mom would want me to do but I miss her sooooo much!!! :(

Good morning :)
"I know exactly how you're feeling."
I lost my mother on February 6, 2013, and this year I'm feeling numb to the holidays.
I'm feeling like you said...."I'm pushing through the holidays for the sake of family, and because it was my mother's favorite holiday, I know it's what she would want".
All the best to you, please continue to share your feelings, and reach out to family and friends for lots of hugs. ~Cindy

On December 17, 2013, my baby brother (31 yrs old) died suddenly. We will not know the cause of death for 4-6 weeks or longer. I have a big family and we are all hurting really bad. Especially my mom and his twin brother. I am at a severe loss and I know my soul is anchored in the Lord. However, I am in pain and would like to reach out to others to share, and find and give hope during this awful time. We buried my brother on Friday December 27, 2013. On the bright side, If such thing exist, is that we have a large extended family, friends and co-workers and they have all been amazing. Lastly after saying "Oh my God" why do well meaning people always need to know "what happened"... ANy way this day is dragging and my head is throbbing. Thank you. "
