Loosing a parent

I lost my dad almost 2 months ago due to heart failure and I had to fly back home the next day , I wasn't able to even see him for few years I blame myself for not coming back home for holidays , my mom left 12 y ago run away with other man and my dad went into depression and drinking started recently maybe 3 or so years ago , his health gone bad and he had heart attack twice , my mother is evil , when I received message from my brother that my dad just died minutes after he died he texted me , I thought I will die my whole body went numb I had plans to go home summer and surprise him with his 1 y old grandchild that he haven't met yet and after hearing that he died my whole life just broke into Pieces I wanted to die that moment, I went back home and I did not get messages from my mother about sorry for your loss etc , she said to my aunt I hope that corpse burns in hell , how can someone be so cruel, my dad never did anything bad to her or raised hands or abused her in any way , I've been dying inside for 2 months and not accepting that he will never text me or never asks about my day , I loved him so much , I had bad days where I begged god to take me and bring him back , I really don't know how to live I'm struggling so much it hurts , I cry every single day for 2 months straight 

  • I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad, I have lost my Mum now very recently and I am struggling to the point I don't know how to live my life. I understand your pain. It is something we can't take a short cut through, there are no easy paths through grief. The path is long and takes time. Sometimes we will be ok and others devastated. Just know that your Dad would want you to carry on, live your life and also do it for HIM. He would want more than anything for you to be happy. Please keep this in your heart and mind.

    As for your Mother, all I know from my own particular family members, just because someone is your family does not mean they are good people, does not mean they have our best interests at heart. Do not listen to your Mother's words, remember your Dad and his kindness. Surround yourself with kind people and leave the nasty ones alone. You need to be kind to yourself now and time to grieve. Do not waste time or energy on nasty individuals that are huring you.
