My dad has passed UPDATE page 7 #94

[GailT]

Yesterday my dad passed away. I have been up since 4am, even my 2 tylenol PMs did not help me to sleep the whole night. I am suppose to be leaving on the Oct 31 for Disney but I dont want to go, everyone tells me I am going to need that after this week. I am going with my brother to the funeral home and making all the arangements. My father was my rock, when my mother passed away 8 years ago he helped me through my seperation, divorce and lifes problems in general for a single mom, homeowner
My father always picked me up when I was down. I know I have to go on and I will but damn, I want him back. Not because he was my father but because he was a great man to everyone and yes, it was my dad. I just keep repeating what he said to me " I Think the end is almost here ( me and him had this little sick joke between us that he would warn me before he was going to leave me) but yesterday he left. I'll stop rambling, I'll get through it like the rest of the world but when it is your parent you think your the only onthat goes through this , not selfish saying that just I fell that way.

Aww sweetie, I am so sorry hun! Your Dad is still with you, right in your Heart. I know this is a difficult time for you. I think you Dad would still want you to go to Disney, you may just need it after this week.

My deepest sympathy. Your father must have truly been a great man. My thoughts are with you and your family.

I know what you are feeling..........my Mum passed away on Tuesday morning and I'm still adjusting to the loss. My DB is having a harder time of it, as he never married and still lived at home with our Mum. I am feeling better today, after the funeral yesterday and all the family support we received.

hang in there.

to both Gail and Nutsy. I know how hard it is to lose a parent, especially one you are so close to. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

My mother died years ago. I wanted to say that just because you're not the only person who's lost a parent doesn't mean it's supposed to be easy; I'm still sad about my mom's death sometimes. I'm sure you will be fine eventually, but right now be as sad and selfish as you want--you're certainly entitled!

Just think about what your father would have wanted for you in your life, and how much he loved (and still loves) you.

for you and Nutsy.

I"m so sorry! Your dad's spirit will live within you always. Prayers and are coming your way for you and your family during this difficult time.

Don't cancel your trip just yet. Give yourself a few days to think about it. I was faced with a similar situation a when my father passed away a few years ago. Like you, my mom passed away earlier and my dad was my rock. I leaned on him for everything. I couldn't even think about going on my trip when my father died. After a few days, my friends and family encouraged me to go on with my plans and I did. I'll admit that I was still very sad but I'm glad I did it. It helped me to get through some rough times.

May peace and comfort find the way to your broken heart.

Edited to add: Nutsy, I'm so sorry for your loss as well. Losing a loved one is such a painful process but as time goes on the pain will start to ease and the memory of your mom will bring your warm comfort instead of sorrow. Take care!

Gail, I am very sorry also. I pray for comfort for you.

Nutsy, I am terribly sorry about your mother's death.

Hugs to both of you!

To both of you...Gail and Nutsy....I'm so sorry. I lost my mom two years ago and it still hurts. But, life goes on. Yes, it changes but it does go on. But, I guess you both know that don't you.
Nutsy, I'm glad things are going better for you. It's funny but my brother also had a harder time when my mom passed. But, after two years he's finally snapping out of it.
Gail, I know you feel alone now, but they are still with you. I think your dad sounds just like the kind of dad that would want you to go on with your plans. Hard? Sure, but you should get away if you can. A change of scenery will be wonderful for you. He is still with you, in your heart and in your memories. They never completely leave us.....at least that is what I choose to believe.
