If you had one day with someone who's gone

[cyber-sibes]

My mom. She died 13 years ago. So many times I still talk to her even though she's not here. The day she died, I was late getting to the hospital (had two small children, long drive). She had just slipped into unconsciousness. Although I got to say I love you & goodbye, I would love to see her face and hear her talking to me again. Someday...

All of your stories are so touching.

I would have both sets of my grandparents and my sweet Great Aunts (Beulah, Fannie, Nell, and Alma), too. I have too many to even name. Just a minute more, with each of them, would soothe my soul.

My Mom. She died 2 1/2 years ago while I was away in D.C. There have been so many things that have happened since she's been gone and I still want to share them with her. She was the one I could always talk to and turn to with my problems.

My grandmother. She's been gone since July 3, 1999. .

That is the same exact day my mother died. I would choose my mother, so many things I would like to say. We had a great relationship and were good friends but still would like to say more.

My son. He died 1 and 1/2 years ago (July, 2005) and I would like to know what was going on with him. To find out why. To tell him how much his dad and I loved him and how much we needed him - still need him. To tell him how proud I was of him.

I really couldn't chose - maybe my maternal grandmother, she died when I was 5 or 6 months old, so I never knew her in person, really, though I know her well from family stories. Or my second cousin Emily, who committed suicide at the age of 16 with her best friend, to ask why, and settle her parents' and uncle's minds. I'd love to see each of my other grandparents and their siblings and hug them again, there are just so many people ...

I would have to say my dog Sami.

While I miss my grandparents and my brother and sister I truly believe I miss my Sami the most. She was like my child, as I never had children of my own. I miss her stealing my gardening gloves and tearing around the yard with them to get my attention when I spent too much time in the garden. I really miss her sleeping on my feet, keeping them warm. I miss her barking for vegies when I'm making salad. Yes, if I could I'd love some time with Sami.

My Auntie Kate who sadly took her own life a few years ago, I only met her the one time she came down to NZ from Scotland, and I loved her, she was this beautiful person, who I am sure i had a connection with, I would love to be with her again and get to know her ,as i really never had the chance.

Hugs...can't imagine what you have gone through. I think about you often and hope it gets easier.

Gosh this thread is sad, I'm trying not to cry here.

I've been fortunate and have not lost anyone close to me- except my cat Yogi who died last year at 17. I would love to see her again and hold her.

I never knew any of my grandparents. My father's parents died before he even met my mother and my mother's parents were both gone by the time I was nine months old. I have heard so many stories about all of them that have fascinated me over the years. I wish I could spend one day with each of them.

I'd love to meet my grandmother. My sister was the only one out of my siblings and I to meet her. My grandpa's new wife has always been grandma to me, but I'd love to meet my mom's mom. She sounds like such a wonderful lady from all of the stories I've heard.

[Alysser]

Either one of my Grandfather's, I never knew either but while growing up I always wanted a grandpa. Everyone in school would talk about their weekends, doing all this fun stuff with their Grandpa. I would often feel left out. I wish I had the courage to ask my parents about them both.

[Twisterdog]

My brother. I was only twelve years old when he died, and I would love to meet him again as an adult and get to know him.

I have two people,My Brother is one he was killed when i was 18 he was 21,He chose a different style of life got involved with drugs,owing people money,drug dealers at that,im not going to go into details but he had his life taken from him,He was such a great guy before all of what happend,I feel for my neice she has to grow up withought a father and a very unstable mother that will not let any of us see her,

Also my gradfather he was like a father to me always there for me when i needed him he pased October 31,2003,I miss him so i still cannot come to the fact that he is gone,But he is in a better place out of pain and suffering,I wish i could turn back time but what is there to do? I had many great years with this man and memories are the only thing left.
