My dad died today

It's odd when someone dies isn't it? I don't feel anything at the moment, almost like it's not happening to me or like it's a dream. I spoke to him yesterday and I told him it was okay to go and not to be scared and he told me he didn't want to go because I couldn't go with him, he loved me so much and I, him. My world will never be the same without him and I don't even know why I'm writing this, rest in peace dad x

Oh Harley. My deepest sympathy to you.
It feels like a surreal time when you are in grief. Normal life is going on around you but you feel apart from it.

I'm sorry for your loss. Sounds as though you had a beautiful bond, that is really something to treasure. Grief happens in it's own way, there's no controlling it.

I lost my dad recently too. You are not alone. Your dad sounds lovely and that he thought the world of you. Death may separate us, but nothing can lessen the love you shared. Big hugs x

Flowers I still miss my dad despite him having passed away 5 years ago and suffering from dementia for 5 years before that.

So sorry for your loss. I have the most wonderful relationship with my dad. He died five years ago. The love doesn't end, neither does the dialogue. I promise.

I feel for you, lost my Dad in November to Dementia. Everyone said I was his rock but really he was mine. Think about him everyday, sometimes with lots of tears and sometimes with happiness. Take your time, know that whatever you are feeling is normal, you will find a way through.
