Subject: My dad - again

I have a huge problem! My exams start on my Dads Bday and they are very important. My teachers have said i should get really good marks but they dont know about it. I am clever and in the top set but i am so frightened that this is going to let me down.
Does anyone have any advice on coping with the sudden and unexpected death of a loved one. Love Stargirl

i think you should just try as hard as you possibly can my mum died about 2 months ago and i have my exams comming up my teachers tell me not to worry and that they will put me in the sets im expected to go into but i am worried because i know my mum would want me to do well. i hope you can too, im sure your dad wil be sitting there with you in your exams. the best of luck xoxox

Subject: Dad

hello, i am sorry to hear about you dad. I lost my father a year ago...he had multiple sclerosis and burnt to death. This was at a terrible time...All i can say is think how important the exams are and focus for your dad. He would want you to do well. Talk to people too. I got angry with everyone for not understanding ...but they can't. All they can do is listen. Don't bottle up crying. If you need to you should. Don't shut out the grief, it always gets you in the end. If you have siblings talk to them and look after your mum. Still do things and go places it will be good for you. Don't be angry with your dad for leaving you like i was. You will hate the world a\t the minute. Good luck with your exams. I hope the advice will be of some help. Danielle xx

i know how you feel. i recently lost my grandad and it felt like my world was ending, especially as i was very close to him. my advice would be to maybe write a letter to your dad and if you go to see where he was buried then you could bury that with him. or you could tie it to a balloon and set it free. Cruise Bereavement Centre were very kind to me and helped a lot. i hope you feel better about your dad's death and cope well with it in the future.

Hey, ive only just discovered this site cos ive only just started to come to terms with my Dads death. he died 24th April 2005 exactly a month before my first exam. I had the same problems, i was thinking about him constantly, and couldnt concentrate in my exams. Sorry i couldnt try to help sooner, but i hope the exams went okay. xxxx

daddy
i know exactly how you feel , it was my dads year aniversary on the day of one of my exams. to me i just thought that instead of cryin i would do everything in my power to make sure that i made him proud and in fact it gave me more motivation than ive ever had before , it will be the same every year as exams are always round about the same time but just keep in mind how well your dad would have wanted you to do and let that give you the motivation to study and get great results x

Subject : My advice
My advice is, ask if you can have the day off, Explain what happened, ask them to maybe let you do the test on another day. Because i know how terrible sudden death is, its an extremely hard thing to cape with. Do something special on your fathers birthday, maybe something he always wanted to do but couldnt in his memory.
Lotz of luv, Beth :)
