My mum died last year after a sudden heart attack and three months later, my dad died. Previously he had been really strong and in really good health. There was no real reason for his death. I think he gave up living after she died. Even though they were not young, they were not old either and I am really struggling to come to terms with losing both my parents within such a short time of each other. I feel comforted because they are in Heaven together but I also feel the loss so much and now even though I have my own family, I feel so desperately alone.
