I think I was one of the lucky ones. Imagine a 9 year old child who, suddenly lost a beloved family member, his health, his educational status, and his friends. It was also considered he may soon lose his life. That's what I had to cvercome! Yes, I certainly lost a great deal, but it taught me that there was another way forward as well.
