The last Christmas I had without Bono, I was 14-years-old, living with my parents 80 miles away, and praying for a dog of my own ... That seems such a long time ago .... because I'll be 23 next week, and I now live with my fiancé, and I'm crying for my dog ...

I used to love all the Christmas cheer, and now I see all the commercialised adverts. And I'd get a little excited about thinking about Christmas. Bono loved Christmas; it's the only time of year I let him eat what he wanted, no matter how unhealthy it was. I'd smile at him wolfing down his turkey dinner (I'm Vegetarian so he got LOADS of turkey), but at least I'd know that he was happy. I knew that this Christmas might be my last Christmas with Bono. So I'd begun to plan ahead to make it a special one. I bought his Christmas doggy stocking early, and even a little Santa outfit ... but last week he died ... and I didn't have my last Christmas with Bono.

My vet warned me 'Don't set targets. Just enjoy him'. This is going to be a sad Christmas without him ... and I've no idea how I'll cope ...
