Lost my dad last week it’s the worst lonely feeling I’ve had, it’s too early for words for you, nothing anyone could say right now would ease the pain, but I have felt that by knowing you are not alone gives you a tiny hope that you will cope eventually however tough it is now, dad’s love us, think of the nicest happy memories you can think of and know that’s what he’d really want you to think of x

So sorry for your loss, we all know and feel your grief. So sorry, I know it’s not easy! it’s heart breaking. I loss my mum in August 23 and I still live in the flat I shared with her. So I totally understand your loss and pain.
I lost my dear Dad in November. I feel like I’m living in a dream state, some days numb, some days angry, some days inconsolable. He suffered a massive heart attack on a holiday in Scotland and I spent 4 weeks by his bedside and managed to get him home to my house in Somerset for two weeks respite then he went back to his own home but only for one week before he sadly ended up back in A&E at the request of his heart failure nurse who said he just needed his meds tweaked by a cardiologist… there were so many failings when he got to hospital of which I was witness to. He wasn’t supposed to be admitted but was and this is playing on my mind day in and day out. His heart failure nurse said she just couldn’t understand how things happened the way they did. She didn’t want to upset me but she was frustrated after reading medical information and now I’m living with should he still be here… I’m literally heartbroken. I feel like I failed him… did I fight for him enough when he ended up back in hospital… he had such fantastic care in Scotland and it just wasn’t the same when he came back to the UK. I feel like I’m torturing myself every day. I miss his voice, we spoke every day. I just can’t seem to see how the days will get easier. My husband says things will get softer in time… not easier… just softer.

I feel your pain sweetheart
You always wonder can I do more .
I lost my daddy on the 6//1/2025
I’m
Broken into a million pieces
Like you thinking what could of been done more
He had terminal cancer snd went down rapidly after November
He was at home but the night he passed
He was gasping for oxygen
We were waiting for an ambulance because he had a raging infection
Ambulance that took over two hours to come 
At this point he went unconscious
And passed away
I still feel that if they had got there faster I might of had a little more time ,
I feel let down by the nhs
They knew how poorly he was
But I feel they didn’t care enough
Seeing your daddy like that
Haunts me all the time
I would of sold my soul to help him

These stories all resonate with me too. I lost my dad 2 days ago to cancer. He deteriorated quickly but stayed at home. We took on all the bedside care despite being told by palatine care they’d be there every step of the way. We are broken by the trauma and sadness x when I raise it with the health professionals they are quick to try and cover their backs but there were so many things that could have been discussed with us upfront so we were more prepared. Like where to put the hospital bed, get sheets and pjs read, order ready meals and extra tea bags. Simple small things to help us prepare. Why in our society are we so scared of being upfront? If we’d know about the dying stages we’d have not been so scared of each new phase but to have embraced with courage. Everyone knew it was terminal so why not have these conversations upfront before we’re living it xxx

At the moment I don’t know why I feel angry , angry at loosing him , angry at mum because the wishes daddy said to me aren’t being adhered too
She seems to forget I’m grieving too
And he was my daddy for 20 years before he met my step mum
But whet can I do ??? It’s not written down it was verbal between us
I’m so lost with all this I don’t know where to turn
I actually begged my daddy to come and take me Friday night to end all this suffering
