Hi, i am new here. My Dad passed away on Wednesday due to a short battle with cancer. I have 2 sisters. We were with my Dad until the end and think he could hear us talking to him. We are heartbroken that he has gone. He was taken too soon. My Dad was 79. He was only diagnosed in September. Feel numb and cant believe he has gone. Keep expecting him to call or text. My phone is so deafly silent without him. It is the most horrendous watching someone you love pass away in front of you. I dont wanna do anything and wonder if i will ever feel.the same again

I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad.
Nothing hurts like this.
I lost my Dad late last year and the heartache is like nothing I have ever known. I am crippled inside and always on the edge of tears and panic attacks.
He was both parents to me and I am alone in my suffering, but glad I found this site, so I can talk to people like you and vise verser.
Sending hugs

Thank you so much. It is very difficult isnt it. You feel like youre the only one in the world grieving, but youre not.
Exactly, feel completely isolated and I am so alone with next to no support. I don’t have a relationship with my mother, it was always just me and Dad. He was everything and now I am nothing without him. He brought me up single handedly, after getting custody, so he was pretty amazing and now I’m lost and I will never be the same again.
Even some friends have turned out not to be You certainly learn who is there for you and who isn’t, in the darkest of times.

Yes you certainly do find out who your true friends are. I am lucky i have 2 sisters, 2 bro in laws and a nephew. I feel for you having next to no-one, that makes it very hard.
I started to see a bereavement counsellor and I am seeing my doctor later this week, to see if there’s any additional support. I am on the end of panic attacks and tears all the time. I am just not coping without my Dad. I can’t believe he’s gone. I hate it.
I am spiritual though and hopefully we will all see our loved ones again.
I am glad you have some family around you and also this site too.
Lots of love

My sister had a panic attack when we were told by medicals that had just days to live
I’m so so sorry for you and panic attacks can be a little scary, It comes from the overwhelment of upset and anxiety.
Hard and sad times for us all.

I am so very sorry for your loss. The pain is like no other. My dad was also 79, passed away very recently of Cancer. I miss him so deeply. Thinking of you❤
My Dad was 73 and he had heart disease, he kept it from me to protect me and I get that.
He wanted to protect me as long as he could, such a brave man.
He died of Ischemic heart disease and Transient Ischemic attack, which is also known as TIA - mini stroke.
70’s isn’t old, when people are living well into their 90’s, seems so unfair, we lost our Dad’s too young.

Thankyou. You too. Cancer is just terrible and no one should suffer or die alone
It’s a cruel harsh world and your right, no one should suffer or die alone.
Thoughts are with you.
