I’m really struggling with the loss of my daughter 5 months have passed not sure where it’s gone . My husband also has cancer and is on palliative care he’s lost weight,we are waiting on biopsy which is taking forever. I feel so lonely trying to hold it all together. Of course Covids not helping. Is there anyone out there who has lost a child and knows how I feel.
I'm so sorry to hear if the death of your daughter. We lost our 36 year old daughter just over a year ago and the heartache in my heart is still overwhelming. At the point you're at I wasn't sure I could carry on so I do understand your struggle.
That's not to say it gets easier but the nights do have a determined way of becoming the next day even when you feel the world should stop to see the pain you're in.
It must be doubly hard for you with your husband being ill too, I am sorry.
I think the only way forward is, as I'm sure you're bored of hearing, take one day at a time.
Much love xx
Daisy Rose I’m so sorry for the loss of your Daughter and for what your Husband and you as a family are going through.
I haven’t got any children so I do not know the pain and upset you are going through but wanted to reach out and offer you my sincere condolences and that if you ever wanted a rant or a chat I’m more than happy to be there.
I lost my beloved amazing Mum 2 weeks ago tomorrow and my Dad 3 years next month. My Mum to cancer and my Dad to pneumonia. To say the last 4 years since Mum’s diagnosis has been the hardest times we’ve faced and even more so now since she passed.
Please know there are many people who will be there for you so please never feel alone.
Katie.
