Apologies if there's already a thread, I couldn't see one.

I'd like to remember my beautiful son Tony, who died Christmas day 2020. Missed more than words can say.

Also my wonderful dad who died in May this year.

I'd like to wish everyone grieving a loved one, a peaceful and a happy (as it can be) Christmas.

Obviously you don't have to mention names/add photos if you'd rather not.

Missing my lovely best friend of 20 years who died unexpectedly in 2021 - I'll miss her forever 🌻

My P 12 xmas without you. My cousin, my Grandad and my MIL. Missing you all very much

4th Christmas without my DS who took his own life aged just 20.
My world will never be the same, Christmas is a non event.
I wish I could turn back the clock and change things...

My beautiful Dad died in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
I can't believe that I will never see him or hug him again 😢

My beautiful mum who died 14 years ago. She loved Christmas and I know she would have adored coming and spending the day with us and her grandchildren. I miss her so very much.

My Mum who was home to me. And my Dad who understood me. Flowers

My lovely funny sister who died in 2016.

Missing my darling brother. He died in January 2021, aged 31, from Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome. Sharing the cause of his death due to the lack of awareness of it. People aged about 14-35 can get a free ECG done by a charity called Cardiac Risk in the Young. Events are run up and down the country but are quite popular so sometimes people have to register interest to learn of new dates in their location to get tested.

Here is a photo of us as children, when life was much more straight forward, and trauma largely an unknown.

Sending love to you all. This thread has made me teary. Time for my bed, I think.

My darling dad who we lost a few months ago. He always sat at the head of the table at Christmas and this year his chair will be empty. I'm dreading it.

Miss my boy every single day, 6th Christmas without him. Sam - forever 10 💙💔

Lovely, but emotional thread thank you!

Remembering Paul. My spirited soulmate. 21 years this year without him in the world.

Love and friendship to everyone missing someone this Christmas ✨

I'm so sorry you lost Toby & your dad.

My baby son Noah was stillborn at 35 weeks in august and my heart is very heavy this Christmas.

Sending hugs to all those who are missing someone who should be sitting around the tree.

Missing my darling father who we lost in 2016, I wish he could have met my little ones and had a Christmas with them.
Also feeling sad it's probably the last Christmas my wonderful father in law will know who we are as his dementia has deteriorated so rapidly this year.
Grateful though for the wonderful family I have.

AuraBora · 24/12/2023 22:12

@gemloving I'm so sorry about your baby, Noah. X

SomethingBlues · 24/12/2023 22:18

Dad and Dadcu. I need you both more now than I ever did

TeaMistress · 24/12/2023 22:26

To my dearly loved family who are no longer with us. You are loved and missed every day. There are empty chairs where you should be. Merry Christmas my darlings. As long as you are remembered you will never truly be gone.

imho99 · 24/12/2023 23:27

My mum and dad, lost both last year within 6 months. Christmas is just not the same without my mum. Also my lovely friend of 30 years Ray, who died suddenly Friday. It’s hard at Christmas 💔
