Hi
I lost my 14year old daughter Erin in July 22 after a short illness.
I’m struggling to process what happened.
I go over & over in my head the days before we took Erin hospital , the days in the hospital & the day we had to turn off her life support .
I don’t remember alot from that week
I remember snippets . I think this is why I’m struggling so much to get past it . It’s like my mind wants me to remember every detail & my heart thinking if I do it will change the outcome & erin won’t have died …
I thought someone in this group might have been through something similar & able to offer advice
