Re: how do you get over your dad dying

Hi.

I lost my best friend, my dad about 5 years ago. Everyday I think of him..and everyday I miss him. However, he was suffering terribly, and I wouldn't want him to live like that just for my own satisfaction. I love to think of what Helen Keller wrote...as it helped me a lot. "What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all that we love deeply becomes a part of us."

If you have faith, that helps as it gives you hope of seeing your loved ones again...

I am sorry for your loss...truly.

Re: how do you get over your dad dying

[COLOR="Navy"]One day at a time. I lost my father on the 26th of September and my Mother on the first of November. So I m suffered from a double loss. IT is hard when you see their favorite things out for Christmas and you want to pick it up to have for them for the holidays. It hard when you hear their favorite Christas songs on the radio. Daddy used to whistle all the time and it's hard no hearing him whistle with the radio. What to do?

I try to get through each day withought falling apart. It's hard, but you take each day as it comes. Some days are easier than others, and then some days knock me off of my feet. I manage to get to work, with my make-up on, my dress clothes on and looking professional, but inside i'm 11 and i'm lost and calling for my daddy to come and find me. I don't much like being an orphan, but I guess that God needed my parents for someone upstairs......

you are in my prayers.........

Re: how do you get over your dad dying

Time.

It's been almost three years and I miss him still only it's not as painful as it was during the first year.

Time is your best friend.

Re: how do you get over your dad dying

Time is not the only thing that will help but it does help a lot. I lost my dad at age 13, i'm 37 now. I still miss him and think about him. He was a great guy and i know that no matter what he'll always be a part of me. Talking and rehashing old memories kind of hurts at the beginning but it gets to feeling good after a while because you're keeping him alive in your heart. There is pain with every loss but it pays to remember that physical loss is not permenant. I don't believe in deities but I know that there is another plain of existance we go to after our bodies die. It helps to have some kind of faith in a hereafter, if for no other reason than just to give us hope and help us believe that our family is doing better now that they're not here suffering on this plain of existance. Hope this helps a lil. Shane
