Who do you wish could be with you this Christmas?

[NovemberMorn]

For me, my mother.
There will always be an empty space now around the Christmas table.
I would love just one more Christmas day for us to spend together.

Who (alive or dead) do you wish you could spend Christmas day with?

Aww, I understand that completely.
My mother used to play with my grandson, she was a young great nana, still lively.
I wish she could have seen how he has grown. He was very young when she died, but we have talked about her so much he remembers her vividly.

Though our loved ones are not here on Christmas day, in a way they are, because their presence is still felt via the lovely memories.

Also my mum, I miss her so much she brought such magic to Christmas that I can't replicate. I buy a candle each Christmas and light it for her throughout though. I was lucky to have the mum I did.

Not at all...thanks for sharing. x

My friend’s baby was born sleeping at the end of May and she’s really struggling with the festive period.

If I had one wish, I’d have her little one with my friend where she belongs.

My mum, she died in September, so suddenly and I'm still in shock.

I don't know how we're going to get through it without her 😔 I want her so badly it hurts...

My Dad who died fairly suddenly in May. That empty chair at the table will be so hard to ignore. Almost dreading NYE more as it'll be the first new year to go into without him.

My mum & dad, sadly no longer here.

Ah some of these are so sad and must be so raw. 💐

for me my gran and my MIL

My husbands Dad and Nan. He misses them so much.

When I read your header, I thought my DH. But thinking about it, my Dad. He died while we were on our honeymoon, he was so easy going and everyone liked him.

My late son. I miss him every single day but Christmas is one of the hardest times. I am crying as I type this.

the sister i used to have. she’s still here, she’s just gone no contact with lots of family and is totally different since she got married. i miss the sister i had. it feels like she’s dead

Margaret Rutherford
Dolly Parton
Errol Flynn

I'm so sorry @endofthelinefinally - it must be so hard for you

I'm so sorry, Christmas can be such a sad time for many. x

@endofthelinefinally I am so very sorry for the loss of your son. Such a burden of grief for you. I hope you can find some peace. I know it will not be easy.

My sister. This is the 26th Christmas without her 😢

My 21 year old daughter.
Passed away suddenly from a brain aneurysm 7 weeks ago on Christmas Day.
My heart is shattered.

My mum. She died almost 30 years ago but I still miss her.

My nanna has dementia and is in care, this will be our 4 th Christmas without her. She’s here but she’s not.

I posted about her recently but i wish I could have one Christmas with my mom so she could see my girls. She was only 45 when she died and I was 10. I miss her so much.

My mum,

she died on her own of covid Christmas Day 2020 and oh, what I wouldn’t give to have been allowed to be there and to hold her. I’d give anything to have one more moment.

Dad
my grandfather

my great uncle - I wish someone would invent a teleport as he is 3000 miles away and I miss him dreadfully

My uncle who came every year for Christmas- died many years ago but not forgotten

My parents and my sister.. ( sister passed this year) oh and George Michael.
