First Thanksgiving

[pflamingo]

My Grandmother,Dad's mother, passed away on 10/11/09. I still cry just about every night. I really don't know how I am going to make it through Thanksgiving.

My Grandfather is stil living. Last year when I lost my other Grandmother, Thanksgiving was not so hard. We had not done Thanksgiving at her house for years and her husband had died years ago, so there was not a "survivor".

Thanksgving will be hard because we are still having it at my granparent's house. I don't know if I can go into the house and not cry the entire time.

I know I need to be there for my Grandfather, dad, mom, but I feel like my crying the whole time will only put a damper on everyone else, who will be trying to help my Grandfather not think of missing my Grandmother.

How do you handle the "first" Holidays, Birthdays, Anniversary's, etc???

No doubt about it ~ holidays can be difficult, especially all those "firsts." Please make sure you read this post: http://hovforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=4507&view=findpost&p=35215
