First Christmas without my parents

[Lori]

My dad dropped dead of a heart attack on January 1, 2012.  My mom committed suicide on January 15, 2013.  I can't believe how much emotional pain is possible.  I couldn't have imagined it.  I'm really down right now.  To make matters worse, my grandfather died on Christmas day a few years ago.  I have a month of death staring me in the face and I just want to get through it.

Me too! I lost my wife and father in October, this year. Along with that was my dad's godmother, wifes cousin, a coworker that lives across the street and one of my good friends father. We will get through this!

Wow.  You had a horrible year.   I thought I had it bad.  My condolences for all your losses.   Sux, doesn't it?  My grandfather died Christmas Day 1997, my dad died New Year's Day 2012, my mom died January 15, 2013, and my grandmother died on January 21, 2000.  January is now our month of death.

Yeah, my month of death is October. All of them happened then. I really hope I don't have another year like 2013! I am sorry for your losses.

I understand as well. I lost my father on this last Christmas Day and my grandfather a week later. I'm sorry for your lost.
