Have you a parent?

Tweet

I lost both of my adoptive parents. My mom died in 2003 and my father died in 2005. I was adopted by my great grand parents so I know who my real mom is but I have never met my real dad. It is still hard for me to enjoy family get togethers,I could tell my mom anything and well my dad was my backbone. How did you deal with the loss? Any advice for someone just starting to greave? I know things will get better but I just wish they could be here to see my daughter grow up. Any thoughts?
