My father died tonight of live complications. this was so sudden I am in such a shock. He was only 47 years old and I am a 17 year old girl... I am very upset right now..

Dear Magnolia - you are a child and much too young to lose someone so close to you. There are magic words that can be said to get you through the next few days, and then the days afterward. You much remember him in your heart and soul. You must carry on for him as he would have wanted you and continue to be the light in his life that I'm sure you were. Keep your eyes on the beautiful - it will strengthen and sustain you. chris
