I would choose my brother. He died seven years ago from a drug overdose. I should have told him more often that I wish he needed help. I shouldn't have overlooked all the signs and, instead of just quietly praying, I should have made him admit he had a problem and get help. I should have done an Intervention. He left two beautiful daughters that he will never see to graduate, get married, have children of their own. I would whisper in his ear "I love you, but I won't stop bugging you until you do something to help yourself". I miss you, Rick. |
I would say my father we were very close i was daddys little girl .he passed 3 years ago .and we talked every day he would come over or call me on the phone .I would tell him I'm the person i am today because of you he was a very careing person that would take his shirt off his back for a stranger just so they would have one ,to this day i miss him so much ,LOVE YA DADDY. |
Wow...this is a hard one to choose. I would want to see both of my parents and all 4 of my grandparents. But I guess if I do have to choose just one it would be my Dad. I was Daddy's little girl (even after I was married with 3 boys of my own ;) ) I would love to talk with him about my boys and tell him how much they still love to hear stories about him and how much like him they are even though they are all 3 so different! I know he knows what nice young men they have all 3 become! I would whisper in his ear....Thank You and I Love You! Now I'm sitting here :cry8: everybody at work is going to think I've lost my mind ;) |
My Aunt who passed away almost 3 years ago unexpectedly. She was my best friend and I spoke with her every single day on the phone at least once. I don't think there was anything left unsaid between us, but to spend one more day with her doing anything or nothing at all would be the greatest gift. I miss her so much!! BTW - it is a great book if you haven't read it yet!!!! |
Everyone is also making me cry. :cry8: I'm sorry but I have to pick two people. My Mom & Dad. I would love to be with them one more day, but I would give my day to my son and daughter so they could be with their grandma & pap pap one more time. My daughter was only 4 and my son 7 when my dad died. But they still talk about him. My mom passed away in January 2003 and they both were so very close to her. It would mean the world to them to have that day with both of them so in turn it would make me so very happy also. P.S. Now I'm crying at work also. But I did like reading everyone else posts and I'm sorry for your losses also. :( |

I have read each and all of the posts and there is one person that came to my mind but is not easy to tell of what happened to her, she passed away many years ago, they said her death was of natural causes. I learned later that an autopsy was never performed. She was our next door neighbor and a wonderful friend, she was maybe ten years older than myself. She never spoke of being in an abusive relationship with her husband and we was never aware of this up until just about three months prior to her death. She had left him and then returned just a couple weeks before she passed away. They were married many years (I think around 33 years). It was on a saturday morning at around 7:00 that her husband came to our door to tell me she was dead, I immediately ran over and went to her bedside, so many details I won't go into but why the authorities didn't dig deeper into her death was always beyond my understanding. It tears my heart thinking of it and remembering that dreadful morning. So many things of what he said and did left me believing that her husband was responsable for her death. I am so thankful today that law enforcement is more apt to not sweep everything into done files and go forth in search for truth in many of these cases that are coming about. I would say to my friend Betty, "don't keep things within yourself like you have for all these years, I am your friend and let me be here to give a ear to all that you are going through even though I may be silent with no answers, I am here for you to have someone you can open up to and maybe by doing so will enable you to give yourself answers to the dilema you are in." I am sorry that my wording and sentence structure isn't too good in this post but this was a very difficult post. It wasn't too long after Betty passed away that we moved, I couldn't stand to live there any longer. Betty was a christian, I recall back to that morning in her bedroom as I looked to the window I could almost see her soul descending towards the heavens, I know she is with God. She had placed a pine tree between our front drive way of which she had brought back from the Colorado mountains while they were on vacation one year, it was so tiny, and I couldn't move and leave it there as we both pampered it regularly :) Before we moved I asked the cemetery if they had a place for her little tree, they said most definately and placed it next to the road above her grave, that tree today stands 50 feet tall. I have never talked openly about this but your question brought back the memories of my friend Betty. I don't know why I have come forth and posted this but maybe there is another Betty or someone out there that needed to read this and please know there is always someone that like myself may not be able to offer advice but have an ear to hear and sometimes that is all people need. Sincerely, Patti |

My Grandma. She died 6 years ago on Thanksgiving. The last time I saw her (on Thanksgiving eve) she was very weak and so different from what I was used to her being. I was scared. and I remember she was talking to me (I had just gotten glasses and she said I looked beautiful in them...) but I wasn't talking to her because it was so scary seeing her like that. I would give anything to talk to her again...and to tell her everything. How much I love her... and also because she was born in 1920, so she lived through some pretty incredible times. and it was be amazing to talk to her about those things. Because when she died I was 8, and I didn't know that they had even happened. and oh my gosh....there's just so many things I would talk to her about. :) |
My dad, it's been 10 years since he died and he's with me daily. He always was so respectful of us and my mom. He had a big bass voice which I can still remember vibrating the house as he would sing praises to our Lord. I know he is singing a heavenly chorus today. Dad was very ill for months prior to his death and for the last 10 months he had Hospice care at home so I was with him daily. If I could have one day with him I would like it to be on a Sunday so I could grant his wish of going to church one more time, because this was the one thing I couldn't do because of his health. |
My Mom who passed away in March. I would want to tell her how much she meant to me and how I loved her so much. Also she would be able to see my birthson her first grandchild, who contacted me 6 weeks after she passed away. I know in my heart that she made that happen from above. Even though for 36 years we never spoke about having to give him up for adoption, i feel it was the one regret she had in her life. She would be so happy. |
Patti,you always write such deep things that really have a way of touchig me.Im so sorry for your friend Betty and many others who live in abusive relationships.I loved the part about the tree,you are such a dear sweet person and I'm thankful for knowing you,in only through the internet.((((hugs)))) Quote:

First of all, I am so sorry for everyone's loss!!! I lost my Dad 4 years ago this Christmas!!!! Therefore, Christmas has not been the same since he passed. Christmas was also his birthday which is another reason that Christmas is very hard for me. But my little boy has had the hardest time with my Dad's death. One day I was cleaning my son's room and realized that he had completely cleaned out the top drawer in his dresser and filled it with all the toys that his Papaw had ever given him. He will not play with the toys because he is afraid they will break and he wants to keep them forever because Papaw gave them to him. So if I had one more day with my dad .....I would give it to my 11 year old son because he misses his Papaw so much!!!!! Oh noooooo.....now I really need the kleenex!!!! |
I Love You Mom! Lots of tears flowing :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: as I try to write this but it would be my mom who just died in Sept. so unexpectedly. I was on my way to see her in Indiana that morning and got that awful phone while driving on the freeway. It is a miracle I made it through downtown Chicago. I would love to see her smile again as she always did no matter what. I would spend the day with her just as I had planned that day, taking her for a pedicue/manicure and to her favorite place for lunch. I miss you mom! |
it would be my mother because we had some things left unspoken between us. Then, it would have to be my daddy and him free from alzhiemers. |
