Hey guys,
I know i havn't made a topic in about a year of so, and havn't been around much. but
I lost my dad from cancer today , just a few hours ago, i also lost my mom from cancer back in 1998, i have a step mom though, and she's helped a lot, alough she was also devistated.
I was with him as it happened, he was peaceful, but it's hard.
i know i sound blunt but i'm still in shock.
It was an un-explainable feeling.

I'm  not trying to dive for sympathy, i just want to know if anyone had similar experiences, and how they coped with it.
I could really do with a little help right now.

Thanks.
sorry to hear about your Dad, my Grandad died recently and that sucked enough. I think people cope in different ways, there isn't a code of practice for these things. I hope things work out
I am sorry as well, and I know what you are going through. My grandfather died about 2 months ago from brain cancer, and I guess it can relate to you because my father died when I was three so to me my grandfather was pretty much my dad. I don't know how really how I coped with my loss, it was too much for me I guess. so I look at it like it was supposed to happen, and that there was nothing i could do about it.
Gosh, I'm so sorry. The only person in my family that's died was my cousin who was killed by a drunk driver. I didn't know her very well but I wish I did. A lot of people say I'm a lot like her, and we both had horses and were crazy about them. I'll pray for you, and I hope everything turns out ok in the end.
My friend psychic Wolf. "From the depths of my heart, and with sincerest feelings, i am very truly sorry about your father". I know this is a hard time in you life to go through, and always know i will be there. Like Nashoba, i will always pray for you. You have spoken to me before, and i understand how you feel. If you ever need help, you'll know where to find me. And don't be shy, if you need it. Condalence, my close friend, and may god bless you. Also, i did receive your last email.
So Sorry. I kinda know how it feels cause My parents are divorced, and my mom re-married, but now they're getting divorced pretty soon:(
I'm sorry for your parents there are ups and downs in life.But one day you'll only think about the wonderful times you spend with your parents. I hope  you still have some good time.
Very sorry for your parents, cancer isnt a nice way to die.
 I can only give you a short poem
 
Life is a battle we all lose in time, nobody no matter the power or influence wins, but the memory of the past ones will always delight our thoughts and whatever you do they wont come back, even if you like it or not. The idea when a person dies (had a experience like this 2 times in my life once was a friends dad and second was my grandfather who died out of lung cancer) is not to cry for his death but to remember and respect his person.
 And dont forget time heals all wounds.
sorry for your parents
I lost both of my poppops almost at the same time.  I miss seeing them.  I know your heart must yearn to see your dad again, I wish I could see both of my poppops again.  I think back at the great times I've had with them, throwing the football back and forth, being called nerd all the time.  Never forget the times you have had with him.  Life moves forward and you must to, but that doesn't mean you can't look back and enjoy the sights as they were back then.  I cry every now and then about losing my poppops, but I think at the times we shared together most.
thanks gadget your words are good.
