The hurt is unbearable

Less than one minute read time.

Well the day came upon me and it was the most awful of days.  Everything I had read to prepare me for the eventual end of my dear father's life did not prepare me for what I saw.

I was twenty minutes late and sadly was not with him when God called for him.  I hate myself for this. I cant begin to understand or even get over the fact that he is now gone and I'll never see him again.  This is what hurts the most.

I loved him so dearly and feel very empty inside.  I know people tell me that he is now at rest and has not to suffer any more, but I am finding it difficult to come to terms with.

I've never felt grief before, maybe apart from my animals when I have had to put them to sleep, but nothing of this magnitude or connection.  I'm struggling with it.  I still really cant believe he is gone, that his life is now ended and I cant get him back. 

Can anyone help me to understand how to cope with this..... please.

So so sad, 

Laura
