I'm so sorry for your loss. I've been widowed twice. First was when I was 25 & my second I was 36. I never thought it could happen to me again, so soon, but it did. I'm 50 now, very lonely without my do or die. I'm too afraid to start over. I dont think I could handle it again. I'm praying for you and your daughters, to give you the strength to get through. Appreciate your loved ones. Be present in the moment. Be grateful for every day.

My brother passed away at 39 years old of a brain haemorrhage due to a clot in his brain. He's left behind a wife, 2 daughters aged 12 and 5, and a son aged 10. My heart broke hearing your story. Grief and children is just a heartbreaking combination. Lots of strength and love to you xxx

I absolutely adore Holly. I followed her since she was on casualty, years ago now and always kept up with her Instagram. I can’t imagine her families loss, she’s very brave and I inspire to like her

Its our one year anniversary of loosing my partner and the children's dad tomorrow and I have revisited thus video. I don't know where this year has gone! I have just watched your video on good things you have done in that day! Yesterday I spent all day in bed crying and today I am up and fine! Grief is like a rollercoaster.

Holly thanks so much doing this video. I was 6 when my dad died. Wish I had support from my school more. However my mum is my role model. I am sure you are for your children too.
