Although I cry at your loss, I'm sure that the precious memories of the times you shared with your father will be forever emblazoned in your mind and in your heart. May God grant you the strength you will need to endure this journey without him. I know that your father is extremely proud of you! Lois in NC

Hello. I lost my Daddy very recently so I truly understand how you feel. I hope that you are learning to deal with this lost one day at a time. It TRULY takes that.
I am still in the anger, depression, denial stages myself. One day I feel better, a day like today (Sunday...otherwise known as Daddy Day) I cannot get myself off of the sofa and put on clothes.
All I can say is I hope for you, this will get easier to understand and deal with. You are in my prayers!!
Sincerely,
Monica | | |
