My dad is amazing and I lost him on 7 sept 25
He was 75 years old I just don’t know what to do I miss him so much it’s so painful and I just sit at crematorium on a bag for life on the pavement and sob and talk to him I can’t cope I really don’t know what to do
I lost my dad in January and I feel your pain your so early into your grief take each day as you can and how you feeling it’s all natural sending hugs to you x
It feels like I’m being stabbed in the heart every single day I think I’m ok then whoosh nope nope I’m not it’s horrendous how are we meant to keep going I just don’t understand how life is meant to be ok ever again
I’m so sorry you lost your dad sending lots of massive hugs to you xx
I know what you mean about visiting the crematorium/garden of remembrance. I’m there now reading & typing this. But it brings me such comfort - I always feel better after I’ve visited. Don’t apologise for doing something that helps you feel close to him. Sending love x
I’m so sorry for your loss. My mum died shortly after your dad and there’s a blanket of sadness over everything now. I just can’t believe I won’t ever see her again. She was also cremated and my dad originally had planned to scatter the ashes. Thankfully he is changing his mind and wants her close. It is all we have physically of her now. Sorry I have no answers to your pain but I want you to know that you are not alone in your feeling of immense loss. Keep using this group as it does help to feel less alone.
So sorry for your loss too it’s the worst pain ever isn’t it
Yeah my dads ashes are at my mams on a shelf we have bought a tree and a plaque that has just been installed at the crematorium last week so now I talk to his tree but I can put flowers there now and I don’t look as crazy just talking to myself well maybe I do talking to a tree but I don’t care the cameras there will have seen many a snot bubble and ugly crying off me but it’s my way of feeling close to him proper daddy’s girl and I’m not afraid to admit it I just seriously don’t know if this pain will even ease
I hope it does for us all love to you all and thankyou so so much xx
Let the tears flow. They are the expression of your deep love for your dad. I was also incredibly close to my mum. She was my best friend and I am lost without her. I can’t imagine the rest of my life without her. I’m 44 so like you that seems a long time missing them. Sending you strength.
So sorry for your loss Clare79, this grief we feel is the most horriblest thing in the world.
You’ll always be daddy’s girl, it’s a wonderful thing. I know I can’t wait to my dad again in Heaven! After all we none of us will be here on earth forever.
Just in the meantime we have to go minute by minute and that’s absolutely ok. Do whatever you need and be kind to yourself.
Lots of love and big hugs and remember you’re not alone, we’re here on this forum for you xxx
I feel the same I always think of my dad every day and I feel this ache in my chest it’s so difficult I was hoping to visit the crematorium today but didn’t unfortunately but I like to go there as it makes me feel close to him but it’s not close to me so need to get a bus or a lift which upsets me x
