Feeling a bit sorry for myself. I do realise that a lot of people are alone and my heart goes out to them. My situation is that I have three adult children. I am estranged by on e which broke my heart I have never seen her children, I’ve written about this before. My eldest is spending Christmas with her child’s other grandmother and my son has invited all his wife’s family round to his house, excluding us. Whilst we are going to my sister in laws for lunch and won’t be alone for me it is like watching another family’s Christmas. I just feel so lonely and would like to just stay in bed and howl. Sorry for the self pity, but I have no one to talk to about this hurt. It makes me hate Christmas and wonder where I went so wrong. I tried to be a good mum. Please be kind.
