Loss of my dad

Hi all I have been going through a hell of a rough time lately last September my dad got diagnosed with stage 4 kidney cancer it had spread so much by time we found out he only had a few session of treatment before the doctors decided it wasn't working due to that he passed away on the 20th January since then I have gone through so many different feelings I feel totally lost still and my heart seems to be breaking every single day I get days where I don't even want to be here where I'm so down I'm just looking to speak and find support from people who has experience the same feelings

  • Hi @Kimmyp, I'm so sorry for your loss. I think it is a moment by moment process. My mother died from stage 4 womb cancer 23rd December last year. It has been the most horrible time of my life. I lost my best friend. I also have days when the pain is just too much to bear and living life without her seems pointless. She suffered quite alot for the whole of 2020 and was in a major amount of pain that left her immobile and couldn't seem to be controlled with pain medication. Im haunted with flashbacks of her suffering and finding her passed. At the same time I also feel quite numb to everything else going on in the world, the parallel feelings are quite exhausting to experience. You aren't alone in the way you feel at all.
