I don't know if I can go to Dad's funeral

Hi,

My Dad passed away a few weeks ago and I was able to spend time with him and was there when he passed. His funeral is coming up and am really torn as to what I should do. I currently feel like I want to be at home and watch it online by myself.  Since he died there has been a lot of arguments between my siblings which I have tried to stay out of. They will all be going to the funeral.

I feel if I'm at home I can just grieve quietly and remember him in my own way without any drama. However, I am worried though that it may appear disrespectful if I don't go so I am pretty torn. 

I am just interested to know if anyone has had a similar experience?

 

Thank you x

  • Hi.  I remember that I almost didn't go to my Mum's funeral after she died of cancer, I honestly didn't think that I could face it, but I decided that if I didn't go, I might later regret it.  I am very glad that in the end I went, and I left almost straight afterwards.  Violet.
