Loss of my Dad, I'm heartbroken

Hi, I've just lost my Dad, I'm heartbroken, he was in the hospice for the last 10 days before he passed away, watching him suffer was terrible. The cancer spread rapidly and he fought to the last day. I'm missing him terribly and feel like I how can I carry on without him. My mum is taking it bad too. I'd give everything up I have to have him here.

  • I am so sorry for the loss you all are experiencing,  I'm in the same boat right now.

    My Mum died  on 24th November. She was formally diagnosed with non hodgkins Lymphoma on 22nd November and due to start chemo on 23rd November, however she never woke up that morning to begin treatment.

    I was called into the hospital and myself, my Dad and my sister stayed with her until she drew her last breath,  24 hours later.

    I'm completely lost and have no idea how I will carry on without her.
