So sorry for your loss.

Enjoy the cruise in memory of your Dad it would be what he wanted.
 
So sorry to hear about your Dad's passing.
Take care.
 
So sorry to hear of your loss Suze :( I'm sending you all my sympathy. I'm glad you got to be with him until the end. Sounds like he loved you very much.
 
Oh my goodness 'spiritfree', its such a hard thing to witness after years of seeing our parents be so independant and caring that the roles then have to be reversed.

I lost my Dad last tues and he'd been diagnosed with terminal illness only 4weeks before, no symptoms, no pain even at the end. I haven't been on here since dx and this is the first time I've visited back here and I then read the heartache you have experienced today. I completely understand your feelings, emotions and pain as I was there just over a week ago...please feel free to PM me if you need to vent about the anger, stress, guilt, sadness you may feel.

I was feeling sad today, Dad was so happy I was starting on a pump in March and following my barriers with diabetes, he was so so proud of me and my pump, he'll now never se me with it. My Dad was my cornerstone of my life and I am slowly crumbling away.

I too was with my Dad when he passed, he also didn't look like my Dad, his eyes went almost soul-less even though still breathing but then slowly that was almost non-existent. I have been told that eventually the sad and last images of a loved one, eventually get forgotten leaving only the fun and happy times which we remember.

I haven't had time to grieve, with organising his funeral(thur) and I feel I am on auto-pilot, I am dreading the day I come to a grinding halt as I'm sure that is when the heartache becomes a realisation.

Take care of yourself, rely on others around who offer help(everyone says they'll help...use them!) and keep a close eye on your immediate family for those not coping.

Much love and hugs to you and all your family, I feel your raw pain and loss to the core,
Susie

I hope you are all able to give your much-loved Dad a good send off Suze, my thoughts will be with you, deep breaths and do him proud 🙂
 
Good luck tomorrow - deep breathing before you start sometimes helps then calmly say whatever it is you want to say. No-one will think any the worse of you if you DO cry - you loved him so why not show it ?
 
Good luck with tomorrow Suzie. It may help if you try reading the eulogy a few times before you are due to speak.

Take care and {{{{Suzie}}}}
 
Aww Suze - am thinking of you and will do tomorrow.

{{{Hugs}}}
 
All the best for tomorrow Suze - i hope it all goes well. I'll be thinking of you. X
 
My deepest condolences to you and your loved ones. I hope tomorrow goes well (((((suzie)))))
