It is approaching the one-year anniversary of my dad passing away (6th March) and I am struggling. I just want a hug from him. I’m lost without him.
Hello @tuxedocat,
I can see you’re new to the community. I’m sorry for the loss of your dad that brings you here, but I hope you find it to be a support to you.
The first anniversary of a loved one’s death can be particularly hard. Our support page on coping with death anniversaries has some ideas on how you can get through the day.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support, but I wanted to share this with you in case you found it helpful right now.
Take good care and keep reaching out,
Seaneen
@tuxedocat I empathise. My Dad died just 2 days after yours & a year feels like a lifetime. I know how it feels & wanted you to know, you’re not alone. X
I too wanted you to know you’re not alone. It’s a few months for me, but I miss my dad beyonds words and feel empty without him. ![]()
Thank you for your reply Cee. It does feel like forever, doesn’t it? Some days are so much harder than others, and with the year mark approaching, it feels like everything is reminding me of it at the moment
You too are not alone x
Thank you for your reply Ulma. I completely understand your feelings of emptiness, sometimes it feels like I’ve lost the light in my life as my dad was my best friend too. I do hope you are doing as okay as you can be. Big hugs to you ![]()
