Dad recently died and I just can’t believe it

My Dad was only given months to live but passed after a short number of weeks. I can't get my head round the fact he's gone. I keep going over our recent conversations, him holding my hand and hugging me, his hopes and plans for the future. I keep getting urges to ring or text him and then it hits me that I can't. I keep getting the usual "he's at peace now" and "he'd not want you to cry" but that's making my angry for some reason. I just wish it was a dream and I'll wake up :(

    Just read your post and I'm there with you....my dad passed last August but its still painful,  and still talking to him on my walk each morning with the dog ,  I ask him to send a white bird to answer my questions as feeling of despair overcome me sometimes. 

    Knowing that he's listening and watching over us helps , and being thankful that I had such a wonderful dad, my mum is struggling with mental illness as well as bereavement.... you need to be strong and make best of life.

    Brighter days are ahead I'm sure
