When you lose an family member it always there. In your heart, an piece that has been ripped out. It matters not what others might tell you about it.. That eventually you get over it, for that is not true. You never get healed on losing someone you love. It has 34 years since my father went away in death. It still hurts even worst than the day that he had died. Actually I believe that I was in shocked at the beginning. But it still hurts really bad especially the anniversary of his death. My mother, sister, and nephews hurt really bad as well too.
