When I was 11, my mother was diagnosed with Leukaemia im not fully aware what one it was however i know that it was the moment my life and my 3 younger siblings life&#39;s would change forever. My father would take my mum to hospital for her chemotheraphy, and all was well she was still herself. Then the side effects kicked in and she began to loose her hair. This was hard for me, as i sat in the dull plain beige painted room whilst watching my mother golden locks being shaved off. I was never alloud to visit my mother when she was in a London hospital. I hadn&#39;t seen my mum for almost 16 weeks, because her immune system was so low, we didn&#39;t want to risk it. In April 2003, my mother passed away, leaving four children behind. I miss her more and more each day. but what more can i do i just have to look after my younger siblings. Why am i writing this blog? I am currently studying my A Levels, and i need some inside information on the different effects it has on familys and the grieving process. I Give great condolences to anybody who has lost someone so close to them. Take care and thank you for your help.<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=224682&AppID=19609&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">Former Memberhttps://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember
