Hi there,

Really sorry to hear of your loss. Your post caught my eye as I am in a similar situation. Whilst not a family member, a very close friend of mine passed away last month, she too was battling an illness and was only 23.

It is one of the hardest things to watch someone you care about suffering and know there is nothing you can do to change or stop it. The world seems like a pretty unfair place at times and you wonder why this happens to people. I'm not sure where you are at, but I am still in the shock stage I think. Even though you know something is going to happen it's still a shock to realise they aren't there anymore. I really really miss my friend and would give anything to have her back but I just hope there is a plan for all of us because that is the only thing that makes sense to me at the moment.

My thoughts are with you, and while I can't say I know how you feel, I definitely understand because I am there too.

Take care,

Kel
