I'm sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is hard. It changes you.
Like another commenter said, don't fight it. The feeling will crop up at some very unexpected times, and reasons. There will be odd moments it returns when you thought you'd dealt with it. Only time will help. Even then it doesn't so much heal, but let you look back without the pain.
Losing my father young led me to make efforts to find out more about other relatives lives. Until he got sick I had, like many, just acted like he'd always be there.
- foota 10y agoIt was so unexpected. I was talking with her on the phone just last Monday about how my interview had gone. I'm away at school most of the year so I haven't been here much. It's hard being home and seeing all these things about my mom. She had pictures of my brother and I hung everywhere, she cared so much about everyone. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I'm going to try to be closer to the rest of my family. Thank you for talking.
