felling a bit beter now. still in shock tho.
My dad had been ill on and off for 12 years. He was in constant pain with semi paraplegia (no feeling from the waist down) but he had phantom pains. also had angina, diabeties and depression.
with all of this he was still my strong loving dad. He had come through so much and he life was just getting better. He got married a year ago and was really happy for the first time in years.
We went to turkey for a holiday and his cathater came out (tube that he pees through) his wife put it back in for him but it gave him a virus. The virus attacked his kidneys and he ended up with kidney failure. While they were pumping hid blood through a machine they were putting tube after tube down his nose to pump out the toxins in his stomach (and the poop) anyway, at some point during all of this he got a hole in his bowel. They could not operate as my dad is allergic to anasthetic. they said it could get better on its own but it wold take ages. I went to see him and he was getting better slowly. I spoke to a nurse on sunday two weeks ago and she told me that he ws going to be ok and that he was getting better. They were moving him out of intensive care. I came home on the monday coz I had to get back to work and see my husband (he couldnt come with me) i didnt ring the hospital monday but I rang tuesday and they told me that he was now out of intensive care and on another ward. I was so pleased but still didnt get round to phoning him. On tuesday I was really ill with the ibs and went to bed all day and wednesday I got a phone call to say that his heart had stopped beating and that he was dead.
I still cant belive it. My dad cant be gone. I need him.
I have to go to the funeral in two days and my husband says it will be easier for me afterwards but I dont see how it can be. How is it ever going to be easy.

I'm praying for you to have strength in
the coming days. I know you've heard
it a million times but THINK OF HOW HAPPY
your dad must be now...walking and moving whereever he wants to go! JUMPING TOO!

The funeral will be hard...the days after will be hard...loss is a hard thing. I'm with you in this struggle...it has been 5 months for me...very hard stuff. Let the tears flow, if able. It is part of the grief process...let it happen is about all I can advise you to do.
