I’m hoping to connect with someone in a similar position to me. I’m 32 years old and lost my mum 8 years ago suddenly due to a medical accident and my dad died in June this year after an 18 month battle with NSC lung cancer. I have 3 brothers (I am the only girl) and I feel very very lost in my life right now. I was extremely close to my dad. He had been unwell with other issues for many years so I took on the roll of carer from the age of 15. I am struggling to manage my emotions at the moment. I feel heavy, lost, angry and empty. I don’t know where I belong in this world without my parents and I don’t quite feel ready to step up to being the one to take the lead on life. Despite me caring for my dad, he was my everything and I turned to him always for support. At the moment, it doesn’t feel like this is going to get any easier
