I can't imagine life without him. He was my rock, my safety net, my sole strength. I love him so much. This can't be real

I’m so sorry @Butterflytoast123 .
Lost my Dad to cancer three years ago. He was a shadow of his former self and in the end it was a release. I was a proper Daddy’s girl and he was a friend as well as a father and so interesting to talk to.
It does get easier with time and you will remember him without crying. Grief will overcome you without warning but I hope I’m not being trite when I say that grief is the price you pay for love but that love you shared can never be taken away.
Wishing you strength.

I'm beating myself up over things I must have done.
Life happened and I had to move away after living near him for 35 years. We saw each other everyday until then. I couldn't visit much in the last couple of years with covid and having a baby.
But I always called him every day. I always sent him his favourite food with a loving note for special days. Our last proper conversation about how much we loved each other. He said he was glad to see me happy and settled. I hope I can hold on to this.
