Losing your Dad suddenly at 16 and starting the rest of your life without him; with Meera Anand RE-RERECORDED

Losing your Dad suddenly at 16 and starting the rest of your life without him; with Meera Anand RE-RERECORDED

Welcome to this week's episode of the Dead Parent Club podcast!

This week's guest, Meera, lost her Dad at just 16 years old. Some of you may have listened to her story in one of my older episodes where unfortunately we had a few issues with the audio and the recording didn't end up doing Meera's story justice! If you have listened before, listen again! And if you hadn't had chance to listen to her episode yet then this is your perfect opportunity!

She talks about going to collect her GCSE results without her Dad there, realising that no one speaks about grief or loss - even yourself, if you're never asked - becoming a parent and acknowledging how fragile life is.

Meera has lived nearly 18 years of her life now without her Dad and a lot has happened during that time but it just goes to show how our parents are always incredibly important to us, even when our life is buzzing on around us.

As always, I hope you enjoy the episode!

Please do leave a review if you love the podcast I would really appreciate it!
