I am so sorry for your loss you came to the right place for support. Everyone here knows what you are going through and can guide you through the long healing process. I lost my mom in July to lung cancer. I miss her more everyday it will get easier but the process is very intense. Let me know if you want to talk.

Welcome! I'm sorry for the loss of your Father and although yours is more recent, I feel your pain. My Father passed just over four months ago and it's still hard to accept that he is gone. I hope you have close family and friends to lean on and understand, how much you are hurting. I believe you have taken a huge, positive step by coming here so soon. This site has helped me more than you could imagine, and it may well do the same for you. Just keep coming back. There's always a lot of us here to give and receive kind, encouraging words. Take care.

I am so sorry for your loss and the terrible pain you are going through right now.
I lost my dad in 2002 and mom in 2004. I know how you feel. Even though you know that your loved one is going to die and you don't want them to live in such agony and pain, it's still the most wrenching thing to have them finally pass.
I know for me I felt so selfish. I could go and see them in their misery and it felt somewhat safe because they were physically still here I could talk with them and hug and kiss them. But once they pass that physical contact is gone.
Like you said you would not want him back in the pain and suffering, but it still so had.
The main thing to know is that you are not alone. Your fatheer is always with you my dear.
I smile now just thinking of how peaceful, healthy, and happy they are now and all the while still loving me so much.
Good luck and God Bless

i feel terrible hearing this. but what to do...i guess you have to be stronger and responsible now...slowly and slowly. i will pray for you.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I am not sure what your father passed from, and I know right now your just hurting. If you just want to ramble or just vent or whatever feel free to message me. I will be hear to listen.
Remember how he was, and the happy memories you have. He is looking down on you and he is happy and no longer in any pain or suffering. Big hugs to you in a time of need.
I lost my father Aug 18, 2011 and my husbands father on Jan 1, 2011.

I am so sorry about your dad. Like Shur said, be very gentle with yourself right now. Prayers for you.

I'm so sorry my dear! I just lost my Daddy 5 months ago, and I know there are no words that can make the pain go away. I surround you with prayers for you and your family through your grieving.

I am so sorry you are in this terribly difficult port in of your life. And ya know I am here with you paddling this boat up stream against a current of tears and fears. I lost my dad 20 years ago and my mom on the 13. We are simpatico in the death situation here and I just want you to know it is totally weird and painful and in feel like a cry baby all the time and I can hardly sleep and when I sleep I just pass out and I wake up at five and am a bolt out of bed. I shake my head to see if I am dreaming and I stare off into space and just sink inside my soul and try to fine the loving elements of mom to comfort me. Trust that all the greatness that was your dad will be infused into your would and mind and he will continue to guide you into the rest of your life from an un seen place. I am here I am with you. Blessings

I lost my dad 4 years ago and I was a daddies girl as I guess you are too. He died in my arms after a lengthy illness. It was my first real encounter with death and I didn't think I would make it. Hold on and hang on...it's tragic and it's awful...but hang on...and reach out here for support
Gentle hugs, Sylvia

I lost my dad May 3rd of this year and every single day I miss him so much and especially miss his kindness and softness, I cried nearly every day for 4 months, I have been good for the past couple weeks, but I know it will hit me again as I have so much love for him and still can't believe he's gone...Good luck on your journey, and as I always say, my dad taught me so much but he never taught me how to live without him :/
