Tough day ahead - 25 years ago!

[luluj]

They say time heals, they say you never forget.....well for me time has not healed, but I never forget. 25 years ago at 4.42pm this afternoon my dad passed away suddenly in front of me having a heart attack at the age of 47......

I can't help but wonder what he would be like, how he would have dealt with my financial honesty a few years ago when we sought help from my mum......
But what I do know is he would be proud of me and hubby for turning our lives around.....

Tough day ahead for me .... but I will get through it !

He was very young Liz - hope you get through the day ok. Thankfully my dad is still going at 82.

Will be devastating when he does finally go.

Hugs to you Luluj. My father has been gone 30 years now and there is not a day goes by without me thinking of him. I so loved being a daddys girl xx

Thinking of you Liz and sending a virtual hug.

My dad passed away here in my lounge where I'm sitting right now 14 years ago. I nursed him as he didn't want to go in a hospice so he came to me (with nursing help). Never regretted it for one minute.

I hope the day went speedy for you luluj and you were able to remember the good times with him and not dwell too much on his final moments.

I am sure your dad would be so proud that you have managed your financial problems head on and have a fresh start.

I lost my dad 49 years ago and mom a year later both only aged 43. I still miss them both and when things happen in my life like the birth of my two kids I wish they were still with me so I could share with them

LuLu I hope you got through today 13 years on and it still doesn't get easier from my father dead sometimes I just wish I could call him for advice and to tell me I am taking the right path try strong just like he would want you to be your in my thoughts

I often go to my Dad's grave and talk to him, just the other week I went for reassurance and believe or not I go to spiritualist evenings and going again tonight.

I lost my Dad 13 years ago and I must admit that I'm missing him more than ever now we are getting married - it doesn't seem right for him not to be there. I think about him a lot but it's not the same going to the crematorium instead of a grave.

He was cremated and I have to admit I haven't been to the crematorium for 6 or 7 years. I might take my bouquet there after the wedding but we'll see.

I hope yesterday was ok Luluj x
