To whoever reading this,

i promise you it will all be okay. Whatever happens I can tell you that you will come out the other side and you will be able to live your life again without your loved one that you lost. I want to say that I’m 17 and I lost my dad two years ago and it was agonising. I was extremely close with him as I’m not close with my mum and he died quite quickly from cancer. Make sure that you have lots of support from teachers, friends, family or nurses or counsellors. Sometimes it will be overwhelming when everyone keeps on asking if you are okay but if you feel like crying just cry - grieving is all about letting the emotions wash over you, at first I felt really guilty for enjoying life but you have to remember that your mum/ dad/ grandparents whoever would want you to be enjoying life. Also the love you had will stay with you forever I was also scared that the memories would fade but if you write lots down and keep photos or clothes or whatever you fancy it really helps. Just keep going and am sending lots of hugs. I promise you will be okay and it’s a horrid disease that unfortunately takes so many innocent lives but at least that means there will be so many who are in the exact same boat as you .
