Bereavement
Related: About this forumI just found out my Daddy passed away at 2300.
I was asked to write his obituary. I hope I can do him justice. Thankfully, he didnt suffer many days and if anyone deserves to be in heaven, he does. Of, course I have been fighting tears every day since he became so sick as I am now. Thankfully he was only in Hospice Care for nine days. But now he's gone. As inevitable as death is there will never be anything that prepares you for that day.
Thank you everyone for the loving support you offered me on my End of Life Issues (Group) post. You comforted me and I will never forget it.

I hope you handle it better than I did.

I truly feel for you. Hold on to the love you shared. It will get you through this. The one wonderful thing I learned through death is that the love never dies. It is always with us.

I'm so sorry for your loss, and I wish you a soft landing in the days to come. I've lost both of my parents, and I will tell you, it eventually gets easier, but it will take some time.

(70,363 posts)Please be gentle with yourself. There is no timeline for grief resolution & the stages of grief is not a linear process.
It is hard work, physically as well as emotionally & psychologically.
Please feel free to pm if you wish to chat.

(29,542 posts)After the most intense grieving passed, it feels like he accompanies me now, since hes always present in my heart. I hope you find comfort soon ... but for now, the depth of grief honors your love for him.
Wishing that you somehow find moments of peace in the process.
