I am sorry for your loss Michele, I lost my Daddy August 19th of this year, and I too, still find it hard to believe he is gone. Trying to care for my husband and children, not to show how completely crushed I still am. I just wanted you to know you are not alone in your grief, and I pray for you and your family to find peace. I miss my Daddy too, every day.

Michele

I am so sorry for your loss.  My father passed away on August 3rd and I still have to tell myself he is not hear. I realize it at the end of the day when I get a minute to think.  I am in grief couseling and this is stage we all go through.  If you ever need to talk, I am here.

Michele-- its completely normal to feel like he still should be here on earth-- I lost my dad last May (May 3 2010) and I still have to constantly remind myself that he's gone. It still seems surreal though! I understand having a hard time getting out of bed. I feel like I have been quite saddened lately-- all I want to do is sleep. But sometimes we just have to say to ourselves that we have to do at least 2 things to get through that day-- or maybe just one. Maybe the one thing is to take care of your kids. Ask some of your close friends to come over and help w/ cleaning the house, laundry, etc. I'm only 19 & I don't have kids, but I do know that it's helpful to have someone to help you w/ things that you should be doing but don't have the energy for. I will be praying for you! If you need someone to talk to, please let me know! Take Care!

I know how you feel. My dad recently passed away and I can't stand it. When his birthday comes up, I'll fall apart too.
