My child lost his father last year.
He was 8, his dad was 38.
Passed away with cancer which he was battling for 2 and a bit years.
Although we had broken up and I had remarried, we remained very close friends and my son would go to his dads every weekend.
We went to visit him everyday whilst he was in hospital and hospice, trying to make memories for our son.
It's been over a year now and I am still struggling to come to terms with things. My son is too. I feel completely useless, the one thing in this world he wants I can't give to him.
He misses his dad so much, I really don't know how to help him through this.
He has a councillor which seems to help short term but when I put him to bed at night I can't help but feel so guilty and heartbroken for him.
I guess I'm just looking for someone who may have some ideas of how to help me help him.
