Hello clarketasha.
Sorry to hear about the passing of your dad in December. It is good your husband and children are there supporting you, even though i know from your post that you are struggling.
Losing a parent is so heartbreaking. My dad passed 9 years ago and my beautiful mam 8 weeks ago. Mam was 82 and I lived with her for 60 years. She had Alzheimer’s for the last three years and I cared for her all day every day. I loved her so much and I miss her beautiful smile, the way she said my name, the support we gave each other.
Everyone grieves differently. Currently you say you aren’t crying, but that emptiness inside that you say you have, is grief. It isnt manifesting itself currently through tears. They may come in the next few weeks or months.
God bless and I send you all my kindest thoughts and regards. Stephen. 
Thank u so much dont help because he passes away at my house on my sofa. Thank u for the kid words I do feel alone I have no friends just my husband and kids. Awww so sorry to hear your news..
You are very welcome. Mam was in hospital for 3 weeks and came home under palliative care. Mam had a NHS bed in our dining room. District nurses came each day. I sat with my mam all day.
After being home for 9 days under palliative care, mam passed away with me at her side, stroking her hair and forehead.
When mam passed away it left me lost and alone. Every Saturday around the time she passed away, I go and sit where I was at mam’s side and hold a picture of her in my hand and cry.
Just to let you know that I really know how difficult it is and I send you lots of my best wishes. Stephen.
