Bereavement - Teens Support Group

i just recently lost my dad in january of this year and he was my best friend. I think the reason behind this u already answered urself its another thing thyre missing that they wont get to see i remember one time last week i did a backflip on the trampoline and the first thing i shouted out was didi u see that dad? and i broke down crying vecause he saw it but from heaven so i couldnt see him smile or clap or anything it hurts but its part of grieving juat remember he can see everything u do and he is very proud!!

I lost my dad 2 years ago and still i will pick up the phone to call him. Last week i found out im graduating early and the first thing i did was dial his number because i knew how proud he would be. I sat there in my group of friends and just started crying and wouldnt talk. It takes time. I will have my days where im very happy and in the good mood and then the next few days i just lay in bed and cry because why should i be happy when he isnt here to share it with me. but then i think he is with me and he is watching me and he is seeing everything. Just remember he can see you..he is there for everything..our dads arent missing anything. they just arent there in person. but in spirit

When my best friend died (we were both music fanatics) I got my first solo in the biggest choir concert in the state. After the first performance I broke down crying because he didn't get to see it.
When I got accepted to college I was excited but then felt sad as well because I realized I just out lived my friend even though I was 19.

I don't know why this happens, but it seems it happens to a lot of people. I hope you know that even though your dad isn't here physically, he is still here spiritually.
