So my tears are back again....its now 4 months.....being alone on Thanksgiving....its such a sad time for me.
The holidays are especially difficult when you have lost a loved one. My sister, whom I lived with and was my best friend, passed away 1.5 years ago and there are days that I still shed days because of missing her so much. I, too, am alone on Thanksgiving and with Covid-19 spiking across the country it makes it even harder to connect with people. Stay strong, keep yourself busy and we will get through this.!

[/QUOTE] Four months for me too - lost my beloved husband in July. I thought I was feeling a bit better, more calm, and then today I cried for him all day, missing him so much. Thanksgiving was our holiday with family in from out of town. He loved it like a little kid. Won’t be the same...I am thinking about how to make it nice, include him in the celebration somehow but make a new tradition. Trying to stay focused on getting things done that I need to do, stay busy enough to feel like I am accomplishing something. I am sure the holidays are part of the reason I am feeling a little lost right now. I find myself wishing they were over already. I will keep moving and pray for peace over the holidays.
[/QUOTE] Thinking of you today on this holiday. I understand how hard it is going to be but know that I am sending you a hug to get through today - which we will.
