Good afternoon,

I was a single parent who tragically lost her only child, my beautiful lovely daughter, to a very rare brain tumour in 2022.In fact since discovered she is the only one in the world with this type.She found it so so hard from discovery in 2018 till she passed.

Totally lost without her.

I feel for you ,it so hard to lose a child at any age, they should not go before their parents . When you see all the cruel people in the world you wonder why not them instead,and then
you think well they have or had a father and mother. I met someone today who used to meet my son on the buses ( my son had learning disability) .They asked how he was, I told them he died of secondary bone cancer, they said he was such a nice man ,always joking ,laughing and making people smile on the bus. He loved life and best of all he loved people. This cancer is such a horrid and calus thing. I think we just have to think that we had the pleasure of being their parents
