Part 1 Dealing with the Death of a Parent- My Story

[Josh1980z]

My Darling father died 2 months ago he was only 63. I Miss him very much and really struggling,

[JustOneDreamAway]

You are such a beautiful person. I've never lost a parent, but I've almost lost my mom a few times, most recently being last year. I think that was the first time I really realized just how close I was to losing her. And the same feelings struck me, that she might not be there to see me get married or have children. It really sucks and it scares me, even now. I'm sending love and prayers to you and to Kayla! <3

My father died before i was born and i never really thought about it and i tried to put it out of my mind and try not to let it bog me down, and i am now a senior in high school and when filling out college applications i realized that he isn't going to be there and it hit me, harder than i would have ever thought it would have. thank you for the video, it touching, and it helps me deal with my loss. I hope you are well

Have a good relationship. He told me he would never leave, but be did anyway. It was the hardest thing I could handle. The memory book is a GREAT idea!

[ReillySage]

None of my parents died, but my dad left me when I was 7. It's like losing him though. He won't be there when I need him to be there. He was the person I loved the most. He was my best friend. Whenever I think about him, or I see him in a picture, I cry. I used to get angry at myself because I could have done better to treat him with more respect. I was young, and I had my moments. I always thought that was why he left me. But when I started to get older, I realized it was because my mom didn't

I lost my dad in year 12 so 5 years ago he had a series of strokes and his last one was the be all and end all one basically, I didn't really cry either at the time and haven't much, every now and then I will if I see a photo or if something reminds me of him I will but I think its just the reaction as to how people deal with death. Its a weird feeling and I think as time goes by it does become a lot more obvious that they wont be around. I know what you mean. Chin up <3

[xSamoeschx]

You don't know me that well but.. I came across this because I saw a link to your youtube on facebook and I'm really glad that I somehow found this. My mom died when I was 12. I'm actually 14. You're extremely inspiring and you kind of remind me of an older version of myself.. as weird as that sounds LOL. But yeah, this made me feel better. Thanks for posting this :)

[fallenhard709]

wow i wasnt expecting you to say you lived in ohio. im from cuyohauga county lol.

[74YL02x]

I lost my dad 6 months ago, he was my best friend. He passed away 2 weeks before I graduated High School. It's probably the hardest thing I've ever had to go through in my life.

[amillionshinningstar]

my dad passed away, when i was 9 and im 14 now my dad was my bestfriend it was reallt hard to go through :(

[itsanikkibxtch]

thanks for sharing your story! i can relate in some ways my fathers still alive but he chose alcohol over his family and spends most his life in prison so i felt like i mourned the loss of a parent, because hes missed a good amount of my life and i know he wont walk me down the aisle or meet his grandkids or anything.. hes just a stranger.

[nikki0wl]

I don't really know how you feel but I feel like I do but in a different sense. I barely got 5 minutes into this video and started to cry. My uncle died a few months back. /: Really hurts and puts a downer on life. But stay strong. <3 I wish you the best.

[BeautyMia245]

I can really relate with your story. I was 8 years old and my dad Died from overdose Sometimes I get mad at myself because Of the way I am. I am a very reckless Teenager. im only 15, ive bbeen in and out out mental institutions, Arrested about 6 times, and been to juvi once. I always took my anger out on my mom. I honestly wish he was here to help me becuhz me and my mom are not very close. And being a teenager sucks,i feel very angry a him, and till this dayy i still not sure why.

[TheKriskris421]

Keeping a memory journal is such a great idea i think i may start that.. next month will be the 3 year anniversary that my dad passed away and i still cant talk about it. thanks for sharing your story :)

[danger0usperson]

@TheKriskris421 you shouldddd! i think its a great thing to do!

[Diva1092]

[kiraal0ne]

[XxpoisonkillsxX]

Why would someone even dis-like this video?

[RIOTbbyx]

Very touching and amazing video. <3 you look so pretty

[Ashley9121]

I'm 20, and I lost my dad when I was 17. His death was also unexpected.. It's always hard to lose someone you love, but when I get sad and start to miss him, I talk to my grandma or my mom about him, and it makes me feel better about it.. In a way.

[TicklishCamel]

I can relate to this video, I lost my mother on my 2nd of this year due to Melanoma. Some kind of Cancer. She was 40 something, I can't quite remember. But, I just keep it bottled up, I keep everything bottled up. :/

[Stem48]

My mom's bday was on the 5th this month. Stay strong! Aww halloween :(

[Leanniette]

This video was very touching and beautiful. Youtube needs more people like you <3

[DailyAnni]

the memory book was such a good idea of your mum!

[danger0usperson]

@DailyAnni it really was! im so glad she did that for me!

[Cheerdarling100]

He would be very proud of you if he was still here. Smile at just having him in your life, rather then frown becaushe isnt anymore. <33

[HeresTheStoryKatie]

It's been almost a month since lost my Dad, and it has been hitting me at random times a lot. It's been very difficult. I'm very glad you made this video girl <333

[danamakesyoupretty]

My dad died four months ago. It's good to know that others have gone through the same thing, because it seems lonely sometimes ;~; much love. <3

[ForeverOurWorld]

aww youre so sweet. My half brother's dad died a year ago, and all my grandparents whom I've lived with passed away when I was young it was different but It's the same feeling.

[KaylaCosmetics]

[danger0usperson]

@cutseygymnast awe<3 wow thats super sweet. thank you soo much for those kind words. def made me smile:)

[truexbluexox]

My dad past away when I was 7 and Im 17 now. Being so young, I feel like I don't really remember him a whole lot. I agree with you when you said that you didn't understand the magnitude of it. I was the exact same way, and like you, I didn't cry. I look back now, and feel guilty for feeling that way and not being in the same kind of grief as other family members, but i have to remind myself that its because I was so young. But I get sad sometimes now becuz now I realize what was lost </3

[danger0usperson]

@truexbluexox wow we have a reallllly similar story<3 stay strong girly. i agree with everything you said. i do sometimes feel odd and guilty that i did cry. i honestly just said "ok" and turned on the tv when my mom told me. its crazy how we didnt understand it just yet.

[truexbluexox]

@danger0usperson Yeah it is pretty crazy. Thanks so much for making this vid, Im glad to here a story similar to mine. :')

[SzeCc1121]

It's so hard to accept the fact that someone we love are gone forever

but we need to understand they'er just reached a better place!

STAY STRONG!!

*I can feel that you really MISS your dad, your honest make me cry.

[PIXIEZDUSTY]

I think this is really sweet..I'm 13 right now and when I was about 6 months old my dad died in a car crash and my dads parents adopted me away from my mom when I was probably like 2? It was because she 'abused substances' I think..but like you said I don't really think I want to know. So I don't really know about them but I have one little memory of the day I went to court to get adopted. Oh and my pap I lived with died in 2008 when I was 8 I didn't cry until years later. 

[PIXIEZDUSTY]

@PIXIEZDUSTY But I used to cry a lot about my parents when I was younger..I've pretty much gotten over it but you know how you never really can. I'm actually going to write about a memory and start writing now(: Thanks for sharing<3

[danger0usperson]

@PIXIEZDUSTY wow thank you for sharing that story! <3 youve had a rocky start in life, but you seem to have your head on straight & seem quite positive in your attitudes! thats sooo awesome! it feels goood to write :) i hope it helps you!

[garzuela]

i don't have the ability to listen to this video at the moment i'm in a library, but I admire that you would speak genuine words of comfort on such a difficult subject. I sometimes worry how i will react since my grandparents are nearing 90 years old and i have known them all my life, it is a source of some fatigue at times, i find myself in the middle of the night feeling a sense of panic thinking about it,

[danger0usperson]

@garzuela awe it means alot that you would take the time to comment on it when you havent even watched the video<3 that means alot. and im so sorry about all of that! you must be really close to them<3 its def a tough thing to deal with.
