She admitted how heartbreaking it is that her father did not welcome her home as he did in the past because he is no more.
Speaking about the effect of death on a person, @mhiz_anna_bella noted that it changes one's personality, brain chemistry, mind, soul and capacity for everyday activities forever.
She added that death also changes how one views the world and desires. She wrote:
"Going back home after 5 years and not able to hug my dad hurts so much 😭😭😭.. He was always home to welcome me whenever i visited.
"It still baffles me that when someone you love dies that people expect you to be the same person we were before. You are expected to go back to the same job, the same routine, the same personality, with the same priorities and perspectives.
"But the truth is that death changes every cell in your body, mind, and soul forever. It changes your personality, brain chemistry, your capacity for everyday activities, your needs, how you view the world and other people, and what you want from life."
EX-IMSU SUG president reacts
Reacting to the video, Comrade Arinze Collins Oguike, a former Students Union Government (SUG) president of Imo State University, Owerri (IMSU), told Legit.ng that losing one's loved one can be devastating.
Arinze, who recently lost his younger brother, added that it is more painful if the deceased hasn't enjoyed the fruits of his labour.
"Losing someone dear can be traumatic and devastating, at times leading to depression. The death of a father removes a significant figure in the family, someone with life experience and wisdom.
"This signifies the loss of a role model and personal advisor. It's even more painful when it seems he hasn't seen the fruits of his labor in you."
