My mum died 28 years ago and i still miss her, i miss being her carer and staying with her, going out places,making her meals etc.
My dad died of lung cancer last September and i miss talking to him for hours everyday. If i am being honest my dad was always my favourite person, and i miss him so much. At the time he was recieving end of life care i had just gotten out of hospital and i got a new house, my dad said it’s good you’ll be settled and happy again, i can go soon. But i feel horrible because i am not settled, i hate my house and everyone and my depression is just so bad i think its the worst it’s ever been. If i could’ve swapped places with my dad i would’ve.
