Mr Harv And My Mother

[jennyjoan]

Miss them so much - no body believes me.

[sandyRoe]

I'm sure they do, JJ. Towards the end of the year it's only natural to think of family members and pets that you've lose.

[Zacs-Master]

Conne, I would try to stick to one thread if I were you. As usual people are trying to give you good advice.

[jennyjoan]

that is why I m off the place.

[ummmm]

I miss my dad and uncles. Life can be crappy at times but we have no choice but to deal with it.

[Mamyalynne]

Of course you are believed Conne, I like many spent part of the festivities thinking of those I have lost and everywhere there are reminders.

Grief is a sad fact of life that we carry. We must try not to let it consume us , have you thought of some counselling help?

[jennyjoan]

They are the only people who give you unconditional love.







undonciditaal love.

[Mamyalynne]

And as part of that love they give they would wish never to see you sad but with your mind filled with happy memories.

[ummmm]

I disagree. Other people give unconditional love and understanding....if you let them.

[chaptazbru2]

Yes, my grandma gave me unconditional love and I still miss her 20 years on.

JJ... I lost my mum 12 years ago in January...and both my cats recently..one in June.. one about 6 weeks ago..although it stills hurts.. like a kick from a mule...and the house is empty without our 4 legged friends.. were at the point we can remember the cats.. and our family members who are no longer with us.. with laughter and a smile.. I think of my mum EVERY day..You will get through.. lots of us have been there... were all still here.. you won't forget.. but you learn to carry it along-side you..soon it will get better take care...

25 years since my mum died, I still hold her close to me and miss her - but that's part of life, JJ, it's normal and of course I believe you. The same goes for my dad & one or 2 of my dogs, although I remember others fondly.

Mamaya is right, we must not let grief consume us, but learn to live with it and turn memories into a rich reserve within us. No one will tell you that the process does not hurt. Stick with it!

13 years ago on jan 5th i got my precious beagle a week later my mum died that little dog got my through losing my mum , 12 weeks ago i lost that little dog this xmas has been the most heatbreaking ever with out them both

[Ann]

And 7 months ago I lost my dear Mum, who we always spent Christmas Day with her here for lunch and tea. It has been hard especially first thing on Christmas morning when I missed her cheery phone call - "Morning! Happy Christmas - has Santa been?" We have to hang on to our happy memories even though it's hard for us who have lost loved ones (or pets)
Keep cheerful Conne x

[pusskin]

I hope your feeling a lot better today jennyjoan.
I felt pretty down myself yesterday, but amazing how when you laugh at memories , it can make you feel quite a lot better x

[whirlyhurly]

I'd say you need a doggy companion to shower with all your pent up love. Keep searching.

[pusskin]

I agree with you whirlyhurly.

[DTCwordfan]

Now how about a New Year Resolution to find a new pet? Mr Harv won't come back but you have his memories. A new dog though will find his or her own metier to give you their unconditional love and become a character of their own - and help you towards the future, Conne.

[jennyjoan]

Whilst loathe to do so - I will be leaving most of Chrissie presents to charities shops.

Toiletries do nothing for my nether regions. Do have have my own medicated stuff. Chocolates me fat. Food makes me fat.

The only qualm I have is do the "do gooders /workers take their pick" - will you ever know that.

[jennyjoan]

buenchico - what a kind hearted thing to do buying a First Class person a first Clcass ticken and than to be rejected. No wonder you love your animals more than humans. Think you have been through enough. Enuff said.

[anneasquith]

I doubt the workers ' take their pick' conn. and I'm sure any charity shop will appreciate your contributions.
