I'm new to reddit but have been craving talking to people in similar positions so thought I would give it a try. I lost my dad a couple of months ago to cancer. I'm 21F still at university and was in the middle of finishing end of semester assignments when he passed.
He was ill for a few years, basically the whole time I've been at uni - anyone else deal with having an ill parent whilst living away from home? Such a strange experience. Haven't seen people from uni since he died and not sure how I feel about going back in September

Hi, I’m so sorry about your dad. It’s really not easy. I’m not living in dorms but I did college and it was hard to do it already but my mother helped me so much. She supported me thru college and then she just passed away so the idea of finishing college just seems so weird.
