This Christmas is very hard for me. In the past 6 months I have lost 5 family members. First I lost a 28 year old nephew, then my sister, then my father, then another sister and the last one my step father. So my story is tell everyone you love them because you may never get another chance to do it again. Merry Christmas all.

My God bring peace to your poor hurting heart hugs carolyn

Sorry to hear about so many family members losted. Keep in mind they are in a better place, we have to believe that! Have a blessed Christmas.

This is true we have lost 3 family members and 3 friends all with in this last month.

Amen, bonnetgirl! We've had 3 deaths in our family this year and one of them was my sister in law that fought the good fight with MS for nearly 14 years.
Take care of yourself.
Merry Christmas.

Know that we are all on your side and we will think of you and pray. Please get some professional help, depression sneaks up on you and you have had too much grief for too short a time.

I want to say Thank you to all...It is so hard right now and I guess I just wanted to tell someone how sad I am right now at Christmas.

god bless you bonnetgirl

Thank you

That's a lot of losses. I 'only' lost my father this year. I hope you'll have a blessed Christmas that brings you peace.

Yes it is a lot of losses. My sisters were identical twins and I prayed like I never prayed before. All their lives when one thing happened to one it happened to other...even in death they stayed together. I thought if 6 months went by it would be alright but it was 5 l/2 months and the other passed. I will miss them and the others so much.

I lost the other sister 5 1/2 months later.

May God hold your hand during this Festive season. Happpy memories and Hope that you will find inner peace and understanding during this time. *****

That is a lot of losses in one year. This is just one of the reasons that I cherish my belief in God. I have the knowledge that my loved ones are in heaven and that I will be with them some day. It makes living my life here so much easier. I do hope you find joy and laughter and love this most wonderful season.

I empathize. I lost both parents before I turned twelve. I am the only one who calls siblings yearly. I have a sister that I love and don't know. I will call her. Merry Christmas and Blessings throughout the New Year! Live Laugh Download Stitch!

I am very sorry, I KNOW how you feel, I lost my DH 7 months ago, this is going to be the first Christmas without him, like you this is going to be a very hard Christmas. Merry Christmas for all of you too. (I do not feel merry)

thank you for that thought, when you have so much going on in your life. God Bless

How tragic for you and your family. I am wishing for you peace and memories of the good times. I am learning to tell my family I love them, we were never that kind of family and it feels bad when it takes terrible things happening to make you say those 3 words before you hang up the phone. We are working on hugs too.
Hugs to you, Debra

sorry to hear about your loss I will be praying for you and your family I know how hard it id .

Sorry to hear about your loss; I'm sure we will all pray for a better year next year. And yes you are right; live is to short; they people that your like; tell them; give them a hug 'cos life is so short.

So sorry to hear about your loss.It's hard enough losing one member but 5 is too much to even think about. I always tell people, live as if it's your last day but be Thankful for everyday.We never know.Prayers and hugs, Stella

Thank you for your prayers.

Merry Christmas - it is always sad to loose a family member - but to have more than one pass in the same year - it has to be very hard - I will be praying for you.
