Just needed to vent I just feel so sad after losing mum 9 weeks ago from cancer She was my best friend and we spoke most days
The cancer was very aggressive and her diagnosis wasnt explained to us properly by the medical team we lost dad to cancer 2 years ago and im just so sad and miss them so much they wont get to see me and my partner get married or meet their grandchildren one day
My dad was left with a brain injury in his thirties from medical negligence and mum was his carer until he passed 2 years ago before she also became ill in november it just feels so unfair
we have been doing positive things and fundraising for cancer research in their memory but its just so hard every day

So sorry. 
I’ve also lost both my parents and am having one of those sad days too, just feeling lost and depressed. I know how it is, trying every day but struggling because it’s so hard and takes so much from you. Sending hugs.

@Violet6 9 weeks on is still early days after such a heartbreaking loss. Try not to expect too much of yourself, grief is a long and often difficult journey. Even though it doesn’t feel like it now, these days of sorrow will eventually pass and there will be cracks of light in the darkness. I know that sounds a bit clichéd but you will get through this and be able to manage your grief and live your life just as your Mum and Dad would surely want for you. Best wishes, take care xx

Im so sorry for the loss of both your parents 
I am so scared to lose mum after Dad passed in November. We were very close and my heart aches all day every day. Ive now moved in with mum and we are closer than ever, shes my best friend and I couldnt imagine life without her. Cancer is horrendous and it’s stolen our loved ones from us in the cruelest way possible. I’ll never unsee my Dad in agony, screaming out in pain, losing the use of his body and lying in that bloody bed for weeks on end losing his ferocious fight for life. I’m so sad, angry, frustrated. We’re also putting our pain from the loss into charity work, and thank you so much for doing the same xx

I really feel for you @Violet6 I’m so sad after losing my mum last September and miss her so much. Like you, I think about the things she’ll miss out on, like if I ever decide to have kids in future, or if I become successful in my career etc. She won’t be there to be part of it. I just try and include her still every day and light a candle by her picture and talk to her. It helps me feel closer to her, like maybe she’s still watching over me and can hear what I say. Maybe your parents are watching over you too and I’m sure they would be proud of what you are doing xx
