Lost my dad unexpectedly :(


I'm so sorry, daisy. It's hard enough to lose a parent when you're expecting it, but I think even harder when it's unexpected.

Hang in there.
 
Just wanted to get my words out on a page. On June 22nd I got a phone call from my dads wife saying that they are at the hospital they think it's his gallbladder. I wrote her back and told her to keep me update since I was in Cali and they were in Oregon. She later texted me and said it was his gallbladder and that my dad had a big gall stone the size of a golf ball it had to come out. But they were waiting on the heart doctor because my dad in the last year has had issues with his heart and also he had to anerisms that they had to go in a fix and put stints in. So my biggest worry was his heart. They got the surgeon there and took him for a routine removel of the gall bladder and the gall stone. He did great surgery went as well as expected. This is where it get complicated. While my dad was in recovery after they took him the vent to let him come out of the anestecia( please excuse my spelling) his breathing dropped and his blood pressure dropped so they reventalated him and his breathing came back up but his blood pressure didn't. So they started running more tests and found that he had a heart attack during recovery they brought in the cath lab and found a large blood clot had blocked the main atery they removed it and put a stint but it was to late by than the heart wasn't pumping enough blood to the brain. My dad went into renal failure and we had them take him off the vent because he wouldn't wanted to live that way and passed away a little after midnight on Thursday June 23rd. I am so heart broken I couldn't get to Oregon fast enough to say goodbye. I am so glad that I was able to call him on fathers day and tell him I loved him one last time. I miss him so much...Thank you all for just letting me put it down in words it's been a couple of weeks but it feels like it just happends.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so unfair when we lose the ones we love. I'm glad you found the courage to write the words down. Sometimes that is hard enough. :grouphug:
 
I am so sorry for your loss. My Mum died 2 yrs ago and my Dad a year ago. I say prayers for them every night. I miss them all the time.

So sorry for your loss. {{{hugs}}}
 
I'm so sorry for your loss, and that you were not able to get there in time to say good bye.

This might sound strange, but...have you gone ahead and said good bye anyhow? About 12 years back I lost a friend to cancer, way, way, way too young, and I didn't get the chance to say good bye when the end came. I was so sad that I didn't get to say good bye, and it really bothered me for a long time. I felt like somehow I let her down. Finally one day I just went someplace quiet that she would have liked, sat down in the grass and talked to her for awhile. Told her I was sorry I hadn't been there to say good-bye, told her how much I loved her, how much I appreciated having her in my life and the things she had taught me. It might sound kinda silly, but it did help. I know losing a parent is not the same as losing a friend. But your dad knew how much you loved him, and my friend knew how much I loved her. Sometimes those of us left behind just need to say it out loud, even if we are talking to the breeze in a sunny quiet spot.

:hug: Hang in there.
 
I am so very sorry for the lose of your daddy. I know the pain that you are feeling all to well. I lost my dad suddenly about 15 years ago and I still miss him every single day. It's still hard, but it does get easier. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.:hug:
 
I am so sorry for you loss. I'm so glad you were able to speak with him on Father's day though. :hug:
 
I´m so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom very suddenly too, she died in her sleep from a massive heart attack.I feel your pain!
 
I am so sorry for the sad loss of your dear Dad, I know this pain all too well :sad1:. I agree w/Michelle67, talking to him letting him how you feel or writing it out will help ease your pain and comfort you in the difficult days ahead. He knows how much you loved him. May his loving memories tucked safely in your heart help bring you peace. God Bless :hug:
