Happy xmas!

In my last Xmas post I suggested at Xmas time we think of the people on their own at home or working during Xmas. Well this time a recent event at work reminded me of people who have lost a loved one or close friend. These events are traumatic and I'd like to remember folks who at Xmas are missing those who have left this world. Trouble is little things happen that remind you they are not there; the yearly present of a pair of socks that does not arrive, the favourite drink that never gets made again or the chair that was always occupied but no longer is. So my thoughts are with you. Time is a great healer I can tell you that - but it is not much help in times of grief.

The other people I'd like to remember are the parents of Madeline McCann . Whatever caused her to become missing is irrelevant; the fact is her parents, siblings and friends are going to have a difficult Xmas. These people are also not alone many children and people go missing every year...
