How to come to terms with the fact your going to loose your dad

Hi, I wish I knew, I'm in a similar position, my dads been given a few months and its devastating,  it sounds like your doing the right thing by making memories, sending big hugs to you 

Hi,Leannefay I am sorry to hear your news. 

it may be at some point you need some additional support via your GP. You haven't said if you work or not or what your other pressures are, try to reduce some of those and try to focus on the living he has left, rather than the fear of him dying.

Acceptance - well that's a thing isn't it.  I think, there is no right way to feel, we fool ourselves that there is...you will feel whatever is to be felt, the important thing is that feelings don't overwhelm you on a daily basis. Do you have support outside the family? If not, these are things to consider. In my own cancer journey I have been amazed by who has supported me this year. Make sure you get what you need for YOU as well as your dad. 

None of us know when we'll go, change is the one thing that is a given in this life. Not everyone dies who is predicted to, but some do. So all you can do is take it one day at a time.

Penny Brohn centre in Bristol has a very good library and they also have a helpline .Macmillan's helpline is also good for emotional  support.
