Thank you for replying to me I feel so silly but can’t find that symbol you showed anywhere I have not had my iPad long so still learning.

OK, sorry to hear that, it’s possible there may be a bug. I don’t have an iPad I can test on (I’m working from home due to the pandemic, and it’s working OK on the devices I do have access to), but I will get one of my colleagues to check and then I’ll send you an email to follow up.

This is a lovely idea. Because Frankie was born in Denmark we always did everything on Christmas Eve. His mam does goose with red cabbage and all the trimmings. Then Frankie would put a santa hat on and hand out presents individually. Not sure how this Christmas Eve is going to pan out but I have the perfect candle with a picture of a robin💙

I have lots of candles and tend to light them all year round…but to light a special one on Christmas eve at 7pm would have such a special meaning not only remembering my son but for all the people of this forum who are grieving the loss of their loved also.

A thought just occurred to me after reading @Pattidot’s post…all of my relatives live in Scotland, I have none here in Newcastle, and only a handful (literally) of friends locally. I was wondering if I should post something on Facebook, with maybe a link to this thread? Or is that a step too far, and possibly inviting trouble? I could post it as a public post, or only so my (smallish) circle of friends can see it (I think).
If anyone thinks it’s a bad idea, I’ll definitely refrain.

Oh. I think that is such a lovely idea. 7pm is a really good time. Even if we are surrounded by people at Christmas I’m sure that many of us will still be feeling alone, especially if this is our first Christmas without our loved ones, so by this one single act we can connect with each other and maybe not feel quite so alone.

I think this is going to be a wonderful feeling to give light to our loved ones and unit us all who are going through this awful process and like me it will be the first time without my Rob this Christmas

Thats a beautiful idea. 7 pm is perfect, my husband passed at that time in January.
Sending love to all x

I haven’t been on the site for a few months but seeing your post changed that. Yes 7 on Christmas Eve I shall light a candle not just for my own loss but for all those who will find this Christmas hard. Bless you for such a lovely thoughtful idea.
