I am 59 yrs old and from the age of 7 i feel like i hve been suffering with grief up until last November when i lost my brother aged 61. My dad died at the age of 38 when i was 7 he was my world. My mam was left bringing up 4 kids by herself and what a brilliant job she did. My youngest brother died tragically at the age of 24 by drowning 27 yrs ago im still not coping with that. 9 yrs ago my partner of 12 yrs took his own life, he did it in front of me. 2 yrs ago my mam passed away and 10 month ago i lost my other brother

Thank you so much for replying roni52, i know i am not the only one who is going thro it i always say there are other people and families going thro a lot more.
