how do you cope?

my lovely dad passed away 11 days ago on 3rd of December... even though he was diagnosed 2 years ago with prostate cancer which had spread into his bones he had responded well to treatment... in a very short space of six weeks his cancer took his health completely and his life... how do you cope?? im struggling massively.. friends i thought would be there just aren't.. it should bring me and my brothers and sister closer but it hasn't.. the grief is overwhelming.. im struggling to hold it together at work.. dads funeral is this Friday... Christmas is something im selfishly resenting ... everyone so happy when i just want to scream and cry!!!! then i feel bad as dad even at the very end tried to smile.. watching him waste away was awful..

    I know how you feel, my mum died 10 weeks ago.

    Not been to well. Been staying at my brothers who has been pain to my parents and me for years.

    My brother gave me stick and something silly told me to leave and so did his girlfriend even though been taking to work. Nice.

    I lived and looked after my mother, so first time sleeping at home this very night since mum past. Mum was the house, filled it with joy and love.

    I have a girlfriend who not been that understanding. My friends stopped phoning after they found mum had cancer

    My mum was quite well for over 2 years.Then went depressed and then after few weeks later was weak. Had lot  of sickness and died.

    I've been in shock/dazed for weeks.

    Christmas was my mums Birthday.  Was staying at brothers for the Christmas. That's off now.

    Their more worried about room in mum freezer, than my mum.

    It was a honour to look after mum.
