Hi Katie, Too much heartbreak and not enought time to heal. That is partly what it takes, time. It also takes a determined attitude to not let it get you down. I am sorry you haven't had time to heal. You will heal though. You will. It's hard to know what to say to all those passings. It's mind numbing to think about it all. You are a teen volunteer for Hospice! That is a wonderful way to honor those special people that are no longer here. I bet you make a lot of people happy, just to know you care. Although you grieve for them now, think how blessed you are to have had them in your life, however brief. And you can take things you learned from them and use it in your life today and for the rest of your life. Hopefully there will be NO MORE passings in your family for a long, long while. It would be good if you have time to grieve. Also, even if your dad isn't with you each day, it doesn't mean he doesn't love you. I bet he does. A lot.
