Bereavement

Anyone else missing their father this Father's Day...

I am. He died 24 years ago when I was a child and I still miss him horribly. He was a good man and a lovely dad. He never met my boys or my husband but I talk about him to them so they know the kind of man he was.

I'm ok but just a bit sadder than usual.

Love you dad, wherever you are.

Flowers to everyone else in this boat.

26 years ago this year - I was 16.
My good, decent grandfather stepped in and did weddings, grandchildren and love. Then he died a year ago.
So so hard not to have those very few undemanding relationships - a man who loves you unconditionally and without a need for anything in return.

I have found today very tough. My dad died six weeks ago so everything is still pretty raw. It's also my first Father's Day as a Mum. As I am a single adopter my boy does not have a Dad to send a card to so I had thought we would be doing things for Granddad instead...

I just feel so sad and just want to stamp my feet and shout it's not fair.

Yes, double whammy for me, it would have been dad's birthday today too. Lost him suddenly 4 and a half years ago, and think of him every day. Hope you all are coping with your losses.
