I'm so very sorry for this Jan. I understand the anxiety you are feeling. Can I make a suggestion???

Christmas is a month away. I know the time leading up to the day is stressful and fun and happy and sad. Why not take the stand that you will take each day as it comes....try hard not to look into the future and predict what will happen. Find within yourself your own Christmas meaning and go with it hon. Fulfill your spirituality so that you can feel better about yourself and your situation. I know this is all easier said than done.

Put up that tree...sing carols at the top of your lungs while doing it. If that's what it takes...then you go girl!!!

I'll be your cheerleader Support needed please.

Hugssss

Thank you, dear heart. I'll try just as soon as my tummy settles. I did get my laundry all done today. I didn't get it all put up, but at least it's all clean.

I'm thinking of putting up the tree over the weekend. I usually let it sit for a few days so the branches settle.

Thank you for the support. It means so much.

Hugs,

Jan

(((Hugs)))

What I've found is that during times of stress within a family such as this, they tend to revert to behaviors that are habitual from childhood, when they either acted out or behaved in line as a response to familial issues. So if you are concerned that the family will go back to when you were estranged, I doubt it.

The perfect Christmases occur when, in spite of all that life throws at us, we still praise and worship the birth of our Savior. Support needed please.

January, sweetie,
I am sorry you are going thru all this. As you know, I just lost my mother Thanksgiving evening. Like your mother, when she went to her doctor, she wouldn't tell him of anything that was going on with her. I guess it's the fear.

I am sending you loving and healing thoughts, and I agree with Sabau to take things one day at a time.

Love,
Patty

Oh Patty! ((((((((((( Patty ))))))))))))))))

I didn't know. I guess I was so wrapped up in my own misery that I missed yours. I'm so very, very sorry. Are you ok?

Love and hugs,

Jan
