Hi, my name is Katie and I am 17 years old. I lost my dad to cancer 5 years ago and I still have problems dealing with my grief. In my family studies class we were asked to do our final project on some sort of problem that we can associate with and I decided to do the death of a parent at a young age. In order for me to write my report I need to interview people that also lost a mother or father and I thought this would be the ideal place. I have posted my questions below and I was hoping that whoever feels comfortable enough can answer my questions so that I can learn more about other people. If you don't feel comfortable answering this questionnaire on here please mail it to me, my email is katie_fa@hotmail.com. Thank you. What was your first reaction? Did you want to talk about it? Did you get any professional help? What were some of the changes in your lifestyle? How long did it take you to find a way to cope with the loss? What helped you do this? Did you feel like your family was there for you? Do you feel like they could have helped you out more? What was the hardest part of this process apart from losing a parent? What were the emotions that you felt and how did you deal with these? Do you feel that this event still has an effect on your daily life today? What are some of the preserved memories you have and do you think these memories have helped you cope? Are there any markers (holidays) that bring back memories of your loved one?

Hi katie my name is also katie and I am also 17 years old. You've really had a tough life but I guess the positive thing about it is that it can only get better. I think you're taking a huge step by talking about it and it's great to hear that you're trying to have a future. I know you can and I wish you the best luck. All the problems that you've had in your life have made you stronger and you can beat any future obstacles.

I lost my daddy to cancer a while ago and I really miss him. I decided to do a project on coping with the loss of a parent at school and I was wondering if anyone on here could please fill out a questionnaire to help me out. It's 13 questions and with them I am hoping to understand the stages of grief not only for my project but also for personal reasons. I have attached it and if it's too personal you don't have to do it, just take a look at it. Thank you o for reading this:) questionnaire.doc
