Dear Jenolserm,

I just came across your post by chance, while looking for information. 

I feel for you so very much and I can relate to so much of what you've written. I'm so sorry that you lost your dad, you have my sincere sympathy. I too lost my lovely dad, 20 years ago now and he was just 67. It's unfair isn't it, especially as you say, when you see much older men walking around and healthy. 

As I write, my lovely mum (80) was suddenly became sick in March and was diagnosed with blood cancer in July. So as a family we're dealing with this awful disease again! 

All the clichés in the world don't take the pain of loss away, but I can only say what helped me when Iost my dad. My daughter was only 4 when he passed. I just talked to him everyday and I still do to this day. Somehow it has helped me with that sick feeling of loss that never leaves you. Just talk to your dad, tell him everything.... 

And you were right to post here. It does help to get feelings out on paper. I write in a journal, letting everything out on paper. 

Be gentle with yourself and cry as much as you need to. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well. 

Take care for now
