Hi Tina, so sorry to hear about your dad. You must be in terrible shock. Take some comfort in knowing he didn't have any prolonged suffering. Cherish his memories. You say you want to call him but know you can't, it might help you with your grief if you write him letters or send him texts on your phone ? as it will give you an outlet to say what you wanted to tell him, even though you won't get a reply. Your grief is very raw and you're tired but it will get easier in time. You will always remember him, that will never fade, the pain will in time. Allow yourself the time and space to grieve..
