Has anyone lost thier parents?

Question

My Dad just died in May and its so hard because we were so close and I wish I could call him like I used to but I can't. He was a great listener and didn't blame me or talk rude to me like my Mother does.

Answer 3

I know exactly how you feel . I lost my dad when I was 16 years old . He was only 52 years old and there is not a day that goes by that I do not miss him . He wasn't just my dad but he was also my best friend .

When ever you start missing him , go off by yourself and sit down and start talking to him . This really helps . It helped me along all of these years . And I believe that with all of my heart that he is up in heaven listening to every word I have said to him .

I wont lie to you , it is very hard to get over some thing like this , actually you don't get over it , it just becomes a little easier every day .

Is it possible that your mother is acting like this because she is also grieving the loss of your dad ? Try talking to her , it may help the both of you .

Some times parents forget that kids also mourn the loss of a loved one or they get too wrapped up in their own grieving and forget that their kids are hurting just as bad as what they are .

Hang in there , ok ?

Best wishes

my best friend's dad died a few years ago. he died from being infected with agent orange, in the vietnam war.

she was so close with him, called him everyday. went to his house every weekend. i thought it was really cute how he would call her randomly sometimes. he was the type of guy who didn't show his softer emotions very often. he was even a great person to me. he got very sick, and had to stay in the hospital. my friend went to see him every night, until he just could fight it anymore. she cried and cried, and was heartbroken. it was such a sad thing.

but... there's a good side to this, a side which i'm hoping will be more inspirational to you. when her dad died, she always kept a picture framed in her room, and could talk to him whenever she wanted. because spiritually, he could hear her. they say spirits leave coins around you when they want to let you know they've came to visit you. and maybe it's coincidental, but my roommate finds coins in the strangest places.

always remember the happy times you two had together. he may have passed away, but trust me. he's not gone! i'll bet he would want you to be happy, and not dwell on the situation for too long. he would want to very best for you :)

good luck, and i apologize about your loss. feel better soon :)
