Thank you for the support. I do believe in something more. My dad always used to say that if he died he'd come back and flash the lights to let us know he was around. Well my parents had just built a new house a year before he died, no electrical problems at all. After he died the lights started flickering in the house, not a lot but enough to notice. I was having a really hard time one night and was crying really hard with my fiancee holding me, and I said "I just wish I could know for sure it was him" (Talking about the lights) Well the second I said that, the table light next to the bed (that had never flickered before) started literally strobing on and off for about 5-10 seconds. It never did anything like that ever again. But it made me feel so much better :-)

Hi Megan. I too have butterflies all over all the time. After my dad passed a light went out in a church I have on my counter and my moms lights went out too. Dads I think will be around forever. There are signs daily of him for me. My lil 4 year old keeps saying don't cry mama ...be happy for papa.

yes, some strange things have happened tonight for sure.  I would like to hope it's him.  :)

i don't know what i believe in but losing my dad has definitely made me believe in something. i've felt him around, especially on my wedding day. there's no doubt in my mind that he was there. aside from that i see butterflies all the time, they follow me. i know it's a cliche but it's so strange. my mom says a lot of weird things have been happening around their house (phone off the hook, tv turns on, etc). she's not frightened by it, just sees it as him trying to tell us he's watching over.

Thanks Megan.  Everyone says it gets easier.  I'm sure it does.  But I can't even imagine it hurting less. 
Something really strange happened when I came home tonight.  I don't know how much "after life" any of you guys believe in but I totally think my dad was here tonight.  I'm practically shaking and my adrenaline is running.  I know I sound like a complete lunatic right now.

thank you Brandi, you too. know that it gets better. i don't think it ever goes away, but it gets better.

Megan and Amber, I'm so sorry for your losses.

amber - so sorry for your loss. i really relate to your story and pain, i lost my dad 3 months ago. he died the day before my wedding of a heart attack. i cannot tell you how devastating it has been...i try to look back on my wedding fondly because i know he would have wanted that but the pain overshadows it. we were so close. i know the pain will never go away but i think of how much more hope i have for the future even in these past few weeks, that keeps me going. i know that focusing on the good times we had together helps but it's still hard feeling cheated out of all those special moments and big events he won't be there for.

I lost my dad four years ago last week and it still hurts so much. He passed away right before I graduated from college. We had just started making plans for my graduation party and my upcoming wedding. It still hurts so much, I have such a hard time dealing with him being gone. He never got to meet my daughter, see my wedding, etc. I miss him so much

My mom died 4 months ago

My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked. She died from lung disease. Ironic.I was fine at the funeral. Planning. Talking to everyone. I thought u handled it great. Now 4 months later, I’m a mess. Some days I’m perfectly fine, but others I can’t walk down the street without crying. I keep thinking that I haven’t talked to her in a while & I…See More
