message: im so sorry for ur loss hun
all i can say is u hav to tlk to sum1 about how u feel. Losing ur nan is obviously going to effect everything from ur exams to ur eating and its important you tlk to sum1 b4 it all builds up too much. Moving to the more specialised team will only benefit you if your concerned you must try and voice this.
Do you have a teacher or anyone at school you could go to see?
U do know that under the circumstances you could have a letter sent to the exam board explainin whats happend and wou would get consideration.
you have to think whats important to you and best for you
sitting the exams - its 3 in one day you would of already been mega stress now you have it alot harder - do you still sit them or do you do what you want to do and go to the funeral? bearing in mind AS exams can be sat in janruary aswel as resits - you wouldnt be failing you would be presponing untill you were stronger. The things i was told by the ppl on here when i sat my a levels and didnt know what to put first education or health - they said this - without your health you have no education as you wont be well enough to use it-
its a very hard position your in.
When i lost my dad i didnt grieve as i didnt know how or if it was allowd and in the end it came back n caused me more pain. thers no right or wrong way to feel - if you want to cry cry if you want to shout shout if you want to say goodbye go and say goodbye in your own way wether it be at the funeral or in your own way.
i think its better to deal with one thing at the time and i think its your choice what that is bearing in mind tho that without dealing with your loss your eating will be harder to deal with - no one will expect you to be able to stay strong about both things.
you have dissapointed no1 they know your tryin your best - if they didnt think you were tryin and wanted to recover they wouldnt be offering you the facilities to do so. dont give up please there is hope ther is light at the end i promise.
sorry ive rambled on and on and been preachy its just i feel links to what you say and how things werre for me im now doing extrememly well both in my eating and in life in genral but i couldnt of done it with out accepting things grieving and believing in myself and the help i got
take care im always here
