My friend's mum passed away, and it's never easy losing a loved one. She was like a mother to me.

Growing up within a West Indian community, your friends parents looked out for you like you were their own.

Sometimes it's hard to know, what to do, or say to the relatives left behind. Sometimes you don't need to do or say anything at all.

This was one of those time, I just had to be there for my friend in the way he needed me to show up.
