Hello, it is difficult for me to speak about this outside of my home because I am terribly concerned that my discussion would upset someone Just to chat would be great. Thank you
Hi
I lost my 14 year old daughter 14 years ago due to leukaemia, It was very difficult but we talked about everything even what She wanted after her death. I promised her that I would do all that I could do for her while she was alive but not after her death.
I asked her what I should do after she died, she said that I could be sad for a little then I should get on with it.
I have told my children 11. 13 and 18 about my condition, they had a little cry and that was ok
It is okay for people to be a little upset but more important to appreciate you while you are still alive
