Moonstar,

I'm like you but maybe in a different way. I have family that never stands by me and I am now grieving for my ex-husband who passed just this month. Before him the neighbor I took care of all summer passed in this past September.

About Christmas though, I am just ignoring the whole holiday as I figure if I aknowledge it, it will bring on the saddness and everything else that goes with being alone.
