I lost my beloved dad on April 8, 2016. I think of him every single day. I have a very small family and my husband has been dealing with his own health issues, my teenage daughter is going through her own growing pains and my mom still does not want to talk about my dad because she doesn't want to cry in front of me. I do not have brothers or sisters. I came here for some extra support and offer my own. This has been the most difficult time in my whole life. The most difficult because my dad has always been there for me and helped me get through. He was always positive no matter what. I miss him so much. We all miss our dads and I wish you all the warmest of hugs and comfort.
Today's the day I lost you too, Daddy. Four years to the day from when I lost Mom. I love and miss you both so much! I wish things could have been different between us, Daddy, when I was growing up. I really needed you so much, but I do understand why that didn't happen. I don't blame you anymore. I love you, and it's mostly the good things I remember now. I will always be your little girl, Daddy. I hope to see you soon...
so sorry jillian
I lost my dad on Halloween, 10 days after his 60th birthday. I wasn't there, I was at school. I had talked to him earlier that day. He was complaining that the awful headaches he had earlier were still there, but less intense than before. I told him he should go back to the hospital, he went but by then it was too late. I got the phone call from my aunt saying he had collapsed in the shower and that they were going down early the next morning, not suspecting anything would be as bad as it was. After talking to my mom it was decided I would get picked up by his youngest brother who was on his way down from New York City. It was on that car ride that I got the devastating call. I had to take a leave of absence this semester. I feel like I'm failing him. Although I'm the oldest I was always his little girl and he made me feel like I could take on the world. Now I don't know what to do. I feel like I can't tell my mom or little brother or they will fall apart. But I feel like if I keep bottling it up I will explode.
dadddy miss u wish u wear hear
so sorry lisa
I lost my dad Sept 19 2015. 5 days after his birthday. The pain is still ever so strong... I spent most of adult life being away from this wonderful man. Then for for 2 years I made him the most important part person in my life, doing everything I could to see he was happy. His marriage to step mom was a joke. I had him over for dinner 2 to 3 nights a week. Went to his place once a week.. Took him out every weekend for his rides in the country, picnic's fishing, museums, camping.. Not just for him but for me too. His lost the love his life, my mom when I was 13... He always held a special place in his heart for her.(I'm now 52) 2 years after spending those quality days with my dad, he suffered a stroke. His "wife" just wanted to put him in a home... No way! Not my dad. he begged me from rehab to get him out of that place. I lost sisters and made everyone angry with me and took my dad in.. Made him a room of his own , made the alterations I had to, left my job, took care of my dad for almost 2 years. Doing things I never dreamed I'd have to. Learning along the way .. trying to make dad happy... Hubby meanwhile not so happy. Dad required more care then I could do. Hubby and I stressed to the max. Almost left with my dad to a motel... Lifes challenges hit the roof. Had to sadly and with heartache move dad to an assistant home. It was a great place, caring... Dad was never the same after that.. declined tons in 2 years. He was sad, lonely and wanted out of there! i COULDN'T TAKE HIM BACK... It totally broke my heart, but more so broke his. He passed, me holding his hand... I miss him So much! I feel guilty.. I feel pain.. I feel I let him down.. I just need to know he's finally happy, he's with my mom, and he know I love him.

This has been one hell of a journey for my family. On December 9th, was the 2nd anniversary of my Mom's sudden passing. On the morning of December 10th my Dad had an accident at home that resulted in him breaking his neck and suffering spinal cord damage. Surgery was performed with the hopes of recovery. Sadly enough, several days after the surgery he started to decline. Sadly, on January 8th my father passed away. He had multiple health issues and we knew our days were numbered, but still does not help ease the pain.
I find myself angry and very short tempered with those around me, including my job. I know that this is part of the grief journey, but I just want to blow up on everyone and make them all leave me alone so I can be angry, upset and just hide from the world.
