If it is right for you and your family then do it. It will be hard and there will probably be tears but unless you try to go you will never know how hard it is (does that make sense). Xx

I’m only echoing what others have said. Your loss had been so big, I can’t begin to say I understand what you have been through. Healing processes take many years, and even then your daughter will always be with you. I’m sure that she would want you and her sister to have the best time possible on your holiday though, and hope that you have lots of fun in the parks. I’m sure she will be on your minds, you will cry at memories of you all being there together but I hope you will also make new memories.

I can understand that you will be nervous and have some trepidation, but try to take comfort in the memory of your daughter and enjoy the time with your family

I hope you have a wonderful holiday, you all deserve it xx

You and your family have been through so much together, my heart goes out to you. It is truly only a decision that you can make, but I always like to think that my family members who have died would have preferred me to be happy enjoying the things that I could do rather than not (if you see what I mean).

I hope that you have a lovely holiday, and do what you want to do.

Firstly, I'm so sorry for your loss I lost my Fiancé when I was just 29 and that was hard enough. The firsts were extremely tough but also very rewarding as you get a sense of relief and satisfaction knowing that you have conquered yet another hurdle and you feel stronger for it.

Your daughter definitely wouldn't want you to feel sad, she would want you to all go and have an amazing time and I'm sure she will be there in spirit having a great time with you all. There will be moments of sadness but you will also remember the good times you all had with her there

As for your friends, they should support whatever you want to do. Everyone deals with things differently and there should be no judgement from anyone.

I wish you and your family all the best, enjoy your holiday xx

Its not their lives or their place to say if you should or should not be visiting parks..

Aside from that we used the midday tickets last week and they were fab for us .. Got to the parks at 1ish and stayed till closing , but they are only valid till the 15th dec

Have a lovely time

First of all let me say i'm so sorry for your loss. Secondly as it's been said there is no right or wrong way to grieve, do what feels right for your family and try to enjoy your trip as best you can. Anyone who dares to make comment about how you and your family choose to deal with your terrible loss are not the kind of friends you need!

I cannot even begin to imagine what life has been like for you since April.

I can only echo what others have said. This is a situation that you and your family have discussed and feel he need to do, it is not incumbent on anyone else to judge your decision. If a “friend” should comment I would question that individuals place within your family life.

How families grieve is down to the family and how individuals grieve is down to individuals.

It’s another step you are taking and what a strong family you have.

Take care and best wishes

I am so sorry to hear what your family has been through. We have been through grief as a family but nothing like this. All you can do is what feels right for your family. If you’ve discussed it and want to do it then do it.

All I would say is try not to have any expectations, who knows how you will feel when you get there. But if you you want to be there then be there and don’t worry what anyone else thinks.

Sending best wishes

Nothing new to say just echo the others on here. I cannot bear to imagine how you are feeling and you have to do what is right for you as a family. I hope you have the best holiday possible in the circumstances. Xxx

You have been through the worst imaginable hell as a parent, you absolutely have the right to do whatever you feel makes you and the rest of your family smile. I can’t imagine the pain you’re going through, others around you should be offering their utmost support in whatever decision you make.
Friends of mine lost their 8 year old daughter a few years back. They wanted to take their other children to WDW but the guilt that she would never experience it kept them from booking, especially not helped by a ****** comment from a mum at the school. I’m so pleased they have finally booked to go for the first time next year.
I hope you all have a magical time, you deserve it xxx
