So, they talk about people dying around the holiday and how it's harder then. Dang! I had to watch this. My mother died two days before Christmas five years ago. Talk about touching a wound.

Heidi, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's never a good time to lose your mom. No doubt Christmas would be wrapped in fond memories of her regardless of the date she passed away. Perhaps each time the wound gets touched, it will help you remember just how much you loved her. I sometimes think that during those times of deep sorrow, my mom is thinking of me and how much she misses me, too.

Hi Judy, thanks for your message. I think of her a lot. Mostly, I'm surprised I survived that year. It was a really bad one. That year, I lost my sister in law, three friends, one cat, my father and then my mother. My father had been dead a month before we found out and I'm not too sure where he rates on the grief scale since he abandoned us in 1971. But my mother was really hard to lose. I think of her a lot and wear two ring that were hers. One she gave to me and one my sister gave to me after she passed. I put it on and haven't taken it off. I do feel something about my father, just not a heck of a lot. Mostly sad that he had to die alone, you know? He could have died knowing his children loved him but that wasn't the case. I feel bad for him to die like that.

I lost my mother in August. Even if was not at Christmas time, that time of year is always hard to get through for me. Sometimes I don't feel like celebrating.

sending you hugs, Nancy. I know how that feels. If on that first Christmas without her, we didn't have my brother's fiance's daughter to make us laugh, it would have been awful. She was five years old and sat in my lap the entire time. She's a good girl.

Do you think they miss us even when they are in heaven? I wonder if they even remember their earthly existence when they are in heaven. I didn't think of her missing me. I've been told my grandfather follows me around. We were really close so I understand that but my mother? I didn't think of her missing me at all.

I like to think it's possible, Heidi. I guess we won't know until we get there.

Sorry for your losses, Heidi and Nancy ... and anyone else who's suffered losses, no matter when they happened. I believe that anything is possible. My grandfather that I lost in 1989 and my cousin that I lost to leukemia in 1999 both came back to me in dream form; I'd like to think that they wanted me to know that they are all right now. Also, when I was losing my cat last year my mother's cat, who we'd lost in 2005, came to me in dream form; I'd like to think that she is all right now and so will my cat be ...
