Coping with loss Recently dad passed away

Recently dad passed away

Offline Louise76 over 5 years ago

I Thought I would say hi, I joined here as I'm coming to terms with my dad passing away end of January.

He was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer of the liver spreading to his bones, spine and brain middle of December.

He had radiation for his brain cancer but it just spread.

My sister,mum and myself was by his side when he took his last breath, recently we had his funeral.

I am finding it quite hard to come to terms with that we are never going to see him again. Some days I'm ok others I don't want to speak to anyone.

I know time is a healer but I miss him so much.

Hi so sorry about your poor dad i understand how painful it is for you all and you have my deepest sympathys yes time is a healer but not on its own have you thought about counciling it can realy help it was a lifeline for me as i lost my partner so can relate to how your mum feels its like your lifes come to a full stop if you dont live at home perhaps a call to your mum last thing at night might help her . But just hold on it does get easier just one day at a time it dosnt rain everyday and as the days go by the sun does shine again .bless you paul
