1 year today

well the date has come round and i feel numb still, cant believe its a year ago today since my lovely dad passed away ... miss him so much and would like to say yes it does get better but today it all feels so raw and just like it did last year ... just need to get through the day im at work trying to distract myself ... 

  • Hi again,

    Such a sad day - a year can feel like no time at all and forever at the same time when you are grieving.

    Work can be a good distraction but please take some time out for yourself to remember the happy times you had with both your parents. If the tears start to flow then just let them. Too many of us hold them back for fear of not being able to stop once we start, but our minds seem to need the physical release of crying.

     

    All the best

    Dave
