Title: Sudden loss of my father
Post by: Sally1969 on March 10, 2017, 11:39:50 PM

Hello, my name is Sally.
My father died very suddenly and unexpectedly a few weeks before Christmas.  I am totally devastated and finding it hard to cope.
I also found my father's body at his house when none of us could reach him on the telephone.  Those images are stuck in my mind now.
How do we ever manage to move forward when someone has left such a massive whole in our lives?

I've lost my dad and understand how you are feeling. It feels impossible now,  but it will get easier to cope in time. It's a rollercoaster journey and you need to be gentle with yourself xx
