That's not an easy question to answer. Initially I thought my mom, as I lost her when I was pretty young. Then I thought...would I really want to bring all that horror back, full force, for one day....my answer is no. I'd rather leave the past where it belongs...it was hard enough the first time.
Thank you for your thoughtful answer Angela. For me it would be my dad. I adored him. I always thought he'd be there and he died young..54! Sorry that you have painful memories. I can understand not wanting to relive them. Happy Friday m'dear! :)
I came from a small nuclear family. The only people who were close to me were my father, mother, maternal grandfather, and my aunt (my mother's sister).
To the first three, I would like to sit down and tell them that I realize they did their best;, I have totally recovered; and it really is OK now---and not everything you did was wrong.
To my aunt---Thank you for truly loving and caring about me; you were most likely what kept me going.
