i lost my dad very unexpectedly and suddenly 3 years ago. i was only 15. he was extremly fit and outwardly was the picture of health and yet he went out to the gym one day and never came home. that day changed my life forever, sometimes i get so depressed and in the past i have just wanted to die i miss my dad so much it hurts and it seems so unfair as he was only 40 years old. the main thing i wanted to say is that although i dont think i will ever get over what happened and although i still find it very hard i have realised recently how important it is that i carry on. to anyone else who is going through what i went through u can get through it, it wont be easy but the most important thing i have learnt is that life is precious. my dad was denied the right to live a full and happy life and as a result has left a devastated family behind him however this wont beat me i intend to live my life to the fullest treasuring every day i have because at the end of the day you have to think about what the person you lost would want you to do now. my dad would want me to live. every one of us who has been through it or is going through it should remeber what our loved ones would wish for us. make them proud and live ur life to its fullest if not for yourself for them. at least that way we can take something positive from what is a traumatic and heartbreaking experience.
