Spoonful of Sugar (OP) User ID: 58863116 United States 04/23/2016 11:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very sorry to hear. I was with my father when he died. Kind of a pivotal moment in my life. Life goes on, but you still talk to Dad. At least that's how it is for me. I feel better talking to him out loud, when I'm alone walking or whatever, so I do. Will probably get locked up someday but whatever, it's worth it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70782681 You have my sincerest condolences. I'm sorry about your father, too. I wish I could have been there but I was 2 states away. It makes it even harder. "Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl, 'cause it hurts like hell" -David Bowie |

Everyone I've talked to today has told me to be happy for him, that he's out of pain. But I'm not ready to be happy, I just need to feel like shit for a while. Quoting: Spoonful of Sugar Thanks for letting me vent. Yes....feel the grief. Let it wash over you. Grief honours those we love. Time will heal. But for now...cry..mourn..feel it...embrace it. For it is the highest honour you can give your father. Collect some tears in a small bottle...and leave them in his coffin..as an eternal memorial to your love for him. He gave you life...in death..give him honour. The highest form of love. Now cry...some special tears...for your dad...and give them to him to keep for eternity. |

I wish you could have been with your father at the end, but perhaps there is a reason it was not so. As long as you have some meaningful connections and lessons you shared that is really what mattered. Loving parents carry their children in their hearts all the time anyway so you really were there in a way. |

Spoonful of Sugar (OP) User ID: 58863116 United States 04/23/2016 11:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm SO sorry. My dad died in December 2015 right before Christmas. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61307230 I was there but left the room for a short time and he was gone when I got back. I'm still having trouble with it. I'm sorry for your loss, too. I've heard that people often wait until they're alone before they pass...that they want let go with loved ones around. That's what my dad did in the wee hours this morning.

I've read on nursing boards that many times they seem to wait to pass until loved ones leave the room for even a short time. Don't feel bad about it. He wasn't alone and knew that you were there for him. He likely chose to go that way to spare you extra pain. |
