  1. For free medical care and medications.

    1. Thanks for sharing! I'm also wishing for a world where everyone can get access to the medications and care they need. Happy holidays! -Jessica, Team Member

    2. I would definitely have to agree with you for both to happen in the future. It was utterly heartbreaking to spend hundreds of dollars for meds a month and even more for medical care while in heart failure even when people have insurance. Leslie (Community Moderator)

  2. That my mom would be pain free and arthritis would leave her. That my brother's knee after his surgery would heal. That all the patients at my dialysis center would have a wonderful year ahead.

    1. That is a wonderful with! I am sending good karma out there as well. Thank you for joining the conversation. Morgan (heart-failure.net Moderator)

  3. Be able to eat what I want on Christmas without gaining fluids or weight.

    1. That is probably a universally shared wish! Thank you for chiming in. Is your plan to try to stay within the diet or 'cheat' in moderation? Morgan (heart-failure.net Moderator)

  4. Yes, cheat with moderation! Emphasis on moderation
    We are going out to eat on Christmas.

    1. Have fun! How do you typically do it? Ie do you look up the menu before you go and plan so you're not tempted or do you decide when you get there? Morgan (heart-failure.net Moderator)

    2. Hi there, I hope you enjoyed your Christmas dinner and sampled everything in moderation! What type of restaurant did you go to? All the best, Lauren (Team member)
