My mom, who had terminal lung cancer, decided to wait until after Christmas. She died on January 9th. I know she was only pushing herself to get through the holidays for her family. I hate January all together and holdiay's will never be the same.Chat Icon

My mom passed away on Christmas Eve in 1999, and this will be my first official holiday season that I am looking forward to because I have a beautiful 10 month old baby that I can't wait to spoil!

Re: Anyone lose their om around Christmas?

my grandpa, who was the closest person in the world to me, died dec. 16 last year. christmas will never be the same...i honestly hate it and wish i didn't have to go through with it. NYE also isn't fun anymore...i went to bed before the ball dropped last year because i just didn't care.

and to make things worse, my beloved grandma died right before thanksgiving...so that holiday is ruined as well.

my grandparents were closer to me than my mom (i don't have a dad even though he lives with my mom) and their loss, to me, is the hardest thing i've ever had to go through.

holidays just aren't fun anymore, and DH and i both hope that things will be much different when we have kids

my dad passed away Nov 27th last yr and I will never forget the feeling of looking for funeral clothes in the smithhaven mall with Christmas music and decorations. It was the worst feeling in the world...It still maikes me numb thinking how joyful the world was while things were so chaotic and horrible.

My mom died Dec 21 and was buried on Dec 24th 2004. It has been horrible, you do cope, but it is hard, there is not a day or nite that goes by that I don't cry. She was and in my heart my bestfriend. She is so missed by me.

Re: Anyone lose their om around Christmas?

My best friend's DAD died Dec 29, 1991, after 6 months of battling panceatic cancer. Words can not describe what this man meant to me. After all these years, I still cry everytime I think about him, sometimes I'm more emotional about his passing than his own family.

I go to the cemetary with the family every year right before Christmas. Then is 1997 my MOM passed on Sept 1st after a long battle with Breast cancer and my DAD of a broken heart on Aug. 23, 1998. They are all buried in the same cemetary. Sometimes I feel guilty cause I get more upset going to my friend's father's grave than my parents.

It just sucks that we have to lose the people we love so much
