Hi everyone
I am just trying to navigate myself around the site. Still struggling, but thought I would try and make a temporary place for the WTBT folk as we are all wandering round like lost souls at the moment- don't know if this will work- but worth a shot while Mac try and resurrect the old thread
Love Ali xxx
Pam, I agree with Pete. Ask for and accept help, you will come to realise how much you need it, even tho no you probably don't think you do. Tony is in a strange place at present, he wont understand and you have absolutely no chance. I hope you have chance to have some laughs tomorrow and to make some happy memories. Last year we knew it was our last Christmas and we truely enjoyed it, I have lots of happy memories that i can treasure. I hope you get the opportunity to make similar memories
Merry Christmas everyone xxxx
A peaceful and hopefully peaceful Christmas to all.
The same from me.

I too have survived my first Christmas, with a small amount of help from Mssrs Moet et Chandon.

Just got back from visiting my dad, he is deteriorating rapidly (Altzheimers not cancer) and not expected to live much longer. Its hard to believe that in under 6 months I will have lost both my husband and my dad. Knowing they are better off no longer suffering doenst seem to be helping at present

So sorry to hear that news, Joanna. Just not fair to be going through this.
After thinking that I'd gone through Christmas day ok yesterday, the evening was pretty tough. I just started feeling very lonely - I could have gone around to some local friends, but that wouldn't really have done anything for me.
Still, off to the shops tomorrow and away to the in-laws for the next few days. Hopefully that will distract me for a while.
