Does anyone remember me? Pete here! Operation at age 62, now 77... 15 years a Urostomate! Seasons greetings and a happy new year. I must post more often... My lady wife/partner passed away 13 months ago, so another strange Christmas for me. Stay safe and may your God go with you.

Condolences on your wife's passing. The holidays are hard for those of us who have suffered the loss of a loved one.
May next year be less painful.

Welcome back. The holidays and Christmas especially are hard for me too. I had 4 siblings pass in December. Condolences on the passing of your wife. It will get a little better as time passes, but there will be better days ahead.

My husband also passed away 13 months ago. Can't get a handle on the unbearable pain. Hate the holidays.
