Christmas

So I have tested positive again for Covid this morning with a stronger line than before and I feel pretty rough so it looks like no one will be able to come round for Christmas

Its very difficult to process my emotions about this. On the one hand I'm heartbroken as my family mean everything to me and not being able to have a day with my mom, dad and uncle and give presents and have dinner together breaks my heart, especially thinking about them having their dinner in their house and us in a seperate house. Also because my little boy is actually aware of Christmas for the first time this year and was so excited about Granny and Grandad and Uncle coming over for Christmas dinner, hes been excited for it for weeks and I almost feel like Ive let himi down by having Covid

The other part of my thoughts though keeps thinking that I hate Christmas and every year in the build up with all the fuss and the crowds in the shops etc it feels so overwhelming. Every year I just wish Christmas didnt exist and the wierd thing is this year it wont for me. So i feel like 80% heartbroken and 20% relieved, its a wierd feeling and I just simply cant process my emotions 

  • Omg I'm so sorry to hear that! I can understand your disappointment with this but there will be lots of Christmasses in the future for you and your family too enjoy too :) 

    Spend this one getting lots of rest and preparing for next Christmas ;)

    Get well soon xxx

  • My Nurse Friend, from Belfast, went to Limerick Hospital, to see her Dad, and wasn't told that he got Covid; in the Ward.

    The big Kerfuffle was a Riot, in County Limerick, between Gypsies. Casualties, from those riots, were the first to be seen. 

    That makes my blood boil. However, I'm grateful for being in Northern Ireland. 

  • I am so sorry that you have ended up testing positive for Covid.  What rotten timing! 

    Whilst I understand the disappointment you feel, try not to beat yourself up over it. There will be other Christmasses for your son to look forward to. If you're able to host Christmas next year, I am sure your son will be equally as excited, if not more so.
