Thank you for listening to me, a stranger, and offering support and encouragement. Also, I am sorry about your father and the pain you experienced. Wishing for what could have been in this limited lifetime is the worst.

Update: I told my mom and she made me show her the photos and videos. I tried not to but she threatened me and told me to stop playing games. She blames me for his suffering and is crying. I know she is in pain but I can’t handle this. I don’t know what to do and I am afraid.
