A woman's heartbreaking post about allegedly losing her entire family has left the internet confused and asking questions. On 27 December 2025, a story was shared on TikTok user @obinnauche11's page about a mother who claimed her husband and five children died in a plane crash while travelling from Canada to Nigeria.

The emotional post described how she was supposed to stay behind in Canada while her family visited their grandparents, but an incident reportedly took her entire family from her. However, many people commenting on the post expressed confusion about what actually happened, with some saying they couldn't find any record of such a crash.

The post shows pictures of the woman pregnant with her partner, and another photo of her with her husband and their five children together. According to the caption, the family was meant to be gone for a short trip. The post describes the mother's grief, saying she still sets plates for them at the table and imagines hearing their voices. It talks about how she's living between two worlds, one where her children are gone and another where she's still waiting for them to come home. However, it's unclear where, when, or what accident supposedly claimed the lives of the woman's husband and children.
