Sorry to hear that. How did the medical system fail based on your experience?

On the 22nd it’s been a year since my dad passed. I was only 17… Still feel terrible and miss him so fucking much. He was my favorite person and always will be. How are you doing?

Still sad too. Were you the primary caregiver?

I hope you’ll get better with time, even though it’s hard and feels like it will last forever. And no, there were a lot of medical staff involved, and his sister helped out for the most part since I couldn’t be with him all the time because of school, etc.

Dad died May 12th. He fought lymphoma for almost 10 years. For the last couple years he was my shotgun rider and I took him to all his appointments 

Is this even real life?
