Bye Dad

Less than one minute read time.

I haven't been on for a few weeks because my dad died on 4th July.

5 weeks ago tonight my mum was called in by the doctor to say that my dad had fluid on his lungs and around his heart and that he wasn't likely to last the weekend.  Luckily he got through the weekend and we managed to get him moved to Ty Olwen Hospice on the Tuesday.  He was there nearly a week.  I can't say enough about the amazing staff at the Hospice.  They made my dad's last few days really comfortable and made my mum and I so welcome.  My dad was lucky enough to have a room of his own and my mum and I didn't leave his side until he died at 5.05pm on Monday 4th July.

The world doesn't feel real right now and I don't think I have ever felt such pain in my life.

I can't believe that every step I take from now on is going to be without him.

    Hello Thomas

    So sorry that your Dad is no longer with you, but he has now without pain and suffering.

    I know that feeling of being lost and it does ease with time. Your Dad still walks beside you, you just cant see him. He is inside your heart and will remain there.

    One day at a time Thomas

    Hi all,

    Thanks so much for all your kind words.

    It's been 5 weeks today but feels like years already.
