I thought I was doing well but today I can’t bring myself to face anyone it is 8 week’s since I lost my dad. I’m trying to be strong but am struggling today and I’m not being a very nice person to anyone I feel guilty and angry and I’m a rubbish mum at the moment. I can’t see past this. ---

Hi Fiona, You are not alone.People are probably looking at me thinking I’m doing okay, but actually my heart constantly aches, and I see my dad everywhere, and in everything I say or do. I cannot imagine the rest of my life without hearing or seeing him, but I have to for my mum and brothers sake. If it helps please keep in touch. ---

Here I go then, off to work, dreading walking in, which is so hard every day just pushing myself to go in.Have to work, but I just want to be reminising about dad. Like you I feel very low and subdued. Have the best day you can, One day at a time.💟 ---
