Didn´t know if I could post this? still confused by my lost. My Dad. I guess just wanting to share with you guys too

Feels so Bad / a strong sad feeling, He was a great Father, my first and Best Teacher in Life.

6 day in Intensive care at the hospital, Diabetis & Heart problems were the Big issue for him

He fought a lot to stay here with us. the last 4th heart attack was the one ending with his life.

tomorrow I´ll go back to work. don´t feel that great. but like He fought to the very last minute. That´s my new goal. Do not give up

My prayers go out to you. What I read in your post was a son that was close to his father and loved him deeply. I am writing this from a different perspective in that four months ago we learned that I have chronic kidney disease stemming from diabetics complications. It has given me the opportunity to discuss my eventual departure with my family. My son and I took a short road trip and cried a lot. Even though we don't know if I have a year or maybe more we are now to the point that we often reflect back on the good times we have had and laugh a lot. Also it opened up my eyes and heart even more to the fact that my son loves me and will always miss me and keep my memories in his heart. Well...so much for that. I read into your post that you have that kind of love for your father. No matter how you laid your father to rest...he is not there but in a better place and you will see him again. Also and more important...he and all the memories will always be with you in your heart.. God Bless!

God bless you all!
 
Sorry for your loss TC, its certainly a tough period of time for sure, I lost my Dad the day after Memorial Day back in 2006 and I can tell you this, coming to a car forum to share this story can be very helpful, it was for me back then, so since you're comfortable with doing this I believe it will help you along the trying days that lie ahead for you.

And June strikes again. Man I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Losing a Dad is harder than we think. For me it was much harder than my Mother.

I say "June" strikes again because I lost my Grandfather in June. Then a couple of weeks later my Mother. Then EXACTLY three years later, my Father. June 21st will be 10 years since I lost my Mother, and 7 since Dad.

My neighbor, (a huge car collector and client) lost his wife to a head on collision a year ago the 11th. The driver that hit her was/is a local small town councilman. He was driving a dump truck that had bald tires, wasn't inspected in over 10 years, had multiple safety violations, crossed the center line and hit her... and NEVER GOT A TICKET!

So yeah.... June is something around here that we just hope we can get through.

Keep yourself focused brother. We are not to know the reasons, and honestly I've felt that we often get the raw end of the deal, but that is where we have to let 'faith' guide us. Its the strongest thing we have, and with only the smallest amount (a mustard seed) we can move mountains. ;)

Take care of yourself and it will get better.

I for one am so glad you felt that you could share your feels on this forum. I hope all the comments lift you up and lend some support in this sad time. Also it gives us some insight to some of the members here in that is good to see how many "People of Faith" are on this forum and are with you. As time goes by don't hesitate to reach out again if you feel the need.

It's a sad time...I know. Really, I do. My dad and I had our own loss yesterday morning early... I can only imagine Grandpa's face when he seen Grandma, a son who passed, his mom and dad, and most of all when he seen Jesus. I have a great hope that Grandpa made it to the other side where those golden streets are as transparent glass.

I too will lose my dad someday, so I can't tell you that I know what you're going through because I don't know, and I won't pretend to.

You're new goal is a good one. Try, try again.

My condolences to you and your family. May peace and the grace of God fill your hearts.

Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.


Sorry for your loss just know he's standing next to The Lord right now watching over you and he's not in pain and you will one day see him again. For you will have eternal life

Ive lost my dad a few years ago as well and due to similar health problems. Diabetes led to heart problems which then led to kidney problem. I guess his body could not deal with the stress although his mind was full of life.

One thing i can say that time lessens the pain, but it doesnt go away. Til this day i get emotional when i think of my dad. You just tend to cope with it better as time goes. The thing that makes it easier is knowing that he is in a far better place.

I am very sorry for your loss. Take comfort in the fact that you dad is no longer in pain and altho he is no longer of the earth, he is with the Big Man upstairs still watching and looking over you and your family.

I Know seen him at the Hospital lay down in bed / knowing that he was in such pain. Even with the Drugs, I saw his face in a lot of pain.

I´m trying to keep calm, think about him How he was in life, How great he was with us. I miss him soo much, He´s for sure with God / Thanks a lot for your words and advice.
This is a Great Forum!

I feel his energy on me, that strenght he learn from reading his bibble, very dedicated. I´m happy for him, cause his eyes will see again. He´s heart will beat hard, and be again an strong Angel helping me in my Road to life

I just came from church, helps me given the strenght That I need to support my Mom & Sisters.

I´m very glad that you guys have given me support for my loss. Again Thanks all of you guys
 
I guess I earned his strenght, a day after we burried him / Went back to the shop.

I knew I have to get back to work. My Partner decide it to Give up on the Job, Give up on all the Work and long hours We put.

He didn´t told me nothing, just put a sign outside / FOR RENT
It was something I really never spected. I love my job. I put a lot of effort to it.

Like the shop, He is the owner, And I was the Experience.
Didn´t argue with him, Just told him that I was gonna take all my tools out, My 42´Inch LCD tv / The sound system / The Leather Sofa / all the Chemicals & products.

I almost finish today with the Moving / really hard already to have this new experience. dealing with my fathers lost.
And Know this. Not having my work, at the Shop.

But like it is say / Things happen for a Reason. And I really want to belive that.

I been reading all the post, And a lot of great words of Hope. Continue with my fathers strenght to keep on Walking even if it looks to deam Hard to do it.

Again Thanks to All!!!

It started hard, In the morning We went to the cementery and clean his tomb.
Put new flowers,We stay a moment there. Came back to the house. sure it was hard not to see him on his chair. listening to his music.

But like you guys said to me before. Strenght, and Think about him How great of a father he was.
This life chapter sure is hard, but We are learning day by day to feel better, and try harder in life, just like he did.

Thanks man / great help you guys have given me. Sure makes a diference!!

When Ronald Reagan got shot and was being taken to the operating room, his goal was to put others at ease, He jokingly said to his surgeons, "please assure me that you are all Republicans"

My point is look at the beautiful things in life.

May God bless you

You ll come out of these stronger mate , that was a bad guy to work with , (shop ) a good thing for you on my side .
 
Sorry to hear about your Dad....

The second we're born we are on a path to our end, there's no escaping it, as far as I know anyway.

My high school were filled with horror as I watching my Dad experience numerous heart attacks which climaxed in his death in my senior year. When my Dad died it was like a defining silence overcame the universe and time felt as if it had stopped.....he was just 40 years old

Try as we may, we cannot prepare ourselves for the loss of a parent a void that will remain unfilled.

Thank you for sharing your story and by doing so you've begun the journey of healing...

Bless you and may your heart be filled the the joy of so many great memories you and your Dad shared....
