Hi there, 

I lost my mum back in 2017 due to leukaemia. It was heartbreaking for me and my dad. We built a really good bond between us to get through it. I live with my dad and i'm only 19...

Ive had a job opportunity come up 200 miles away, i automatically said yes and was really excited with my dad cheering me on! Everything is set in place for my move in the next coming days...

I was just sat at the table eating some food while my dad listening to music with his headphones on, i just looked at him and just started crying thinking about him being all alone in this house, with nobody to talk to and listen to. I love my dad so much but emotionally i don't know if i can just leave him like that. He's very able and has recently retired so i know he's going to have a lot of spare time on his hands. 

How do i move forward in life and be okay with my dad being alone? 

Sorry for the long post, my emotions are all over the place right now.

Thank you
