Bad day today

Less than one minute read time.

Dont know what was wrong with me today, well, I do, i'm missing Dad !! Taking the kids to school in the car....started crying. Got to work.....started crying, and so it carried on like that for a lot of the day. I keep talking to Dad out loud and kind of hear him answering. Oh my god im going mad now, hearing voices. I do like to think that Dad is talking to me. I feel him near at times, but its funny, mum went on holiday on saturday with her cousin, the holiday she was supposed to be going on with Dad. I think Dad must be with her as I've not felt him around as much. I probably do sound mad don't I. Sorry, just trying to work out this grief thing.

Love to all of you

    I know what you are talking about . I lost my dad on the 9th of this month and i keep talking to him, I miss his voice so much and everything else. You are not going mad your comforting yourself and thats what i do. If you are mad then im in your club because i know my dad is looking over me and taking care of me and the kids. Hope you are all well and take care.

    You don't sad mad at all to me Sarah, it sounds perfectly normal (not that I have any experience) and it sounds as though its comforting to you and maybe you need it.

    Why shouldn't you talk to your Dad out loud and we know our parents so well that even alive we knew what they would reply to most questions.

    Give yourself time Sarah, but don't stop talking to him.

    No you are not mad or going mad. You carry on talking to him and take comfort from feeling him being with you,

    My dad died of lung cancer 37 years ago when I was only 12 and as time went by it got easier for me to accept because love never dies and when I was diagnosed myself I fought it like a mad woman and I know my dad was with me,,I am my fathers daughter.He is and always will be part of me and continues to live within me my children and my grand children, Nothing can take that away my lovely.

    Thanks all of you - maybe i'm not mad after all. I suppose it's just that I miss Dad so much. It's like I know he's here sometimes just that I can't see him. As you say Carol, he live's on through us and our children.

    Love and hugs to all
