Dad died of cancer 3 weeks ago. Funeral is next Friday. I'm grumpy and angry and upset and hurting 😭😭💔

Mum told me today she's found a lump and I don't know why but I feel suspicious she's making it all about herself and she has a history of this. I don't know how to feel right now!!

You poor thing. I'm sorry about your dad. It's incredibly hard, the waiting period up to the funeral. Be very kind to yourself. Your mum's reaction may be a grief reaction, it may be something is there, you will find out more in time. She is likely to be in shock and not acting very sensibly herself. I hope you are ok.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Everything you are feeling right now is normal and valid. Look up the Seven Stages of Grief when you get a chance, it seems like you are in Anger at the moment and that's fine. It does get easier, or at least less raw. Good luck.
