Exhausted by grief

Hi i am absolutely exhausted with the grief of losing my dad very suddenly. He was taken ill on a family holiday nearly a year ago and following getting him home had 5 weeks in hospital before we lost him. Im struggling with it all and im exhausted, and angry that even thoigh he was unconcious i begged him not to leave us when i was at the hospital but instead he waited until it was just me holding his hand and my nephew in the room.before he took that final breath. I dont know how to move forward and im no longer the person i was.

Hey @Viper89 , so sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is horrible, I hear and feel your pain. Can I ask what you’re angry about? X

Im sorry for your loss viper89. My mum was also taken ill on holiday and was still unwell but was allowed to fly home after 10 days in hospital. She got home, unwell and GP didnt want to know. 3 weeks after getting home, she had a massive heart attack. Open heart surgery, the whole of March in hospital. Came home, but 3 weeks later was rushed back in and sadly passed away with us all beside her. The heartache, the questions and i agree , how do i move on from this. I’m trying to be strong for my family but to be honest , im struggling :sleepy:

Thank you it really is. Just losing him so unexpectedly and that i was the one that was there with him. Also that no one has asked about that day and what it was like when everyone knew i didnt want to be there at that moment which i know is selfish.

Im sorry for your loss too. I understand completely. From the day he was ill he was unconscious so we didnt even get to hear him again, just pure hell for 12 weeks
