Dad died
Comments (28)Brian: I'm happy to hear that your friends and family have reached out. Just make sure you don't turn them away because now is when you need their support the most. They love you and reaching out shows how much they care (so know that you are not alone). And talking about the memories will surely make you smile again. It still makes me smile when I talk about my dad even after the 31 years he's been gone. Just remember, you are still young and have a full life ahead of you to be whatever you want to be and do whatever you want with your life to make your dad (and yourself) proud. He'll be watching over you from Heaven, for sure. As a side note - Now that you have that passport, you'll be able to travel abroad whenever you choose without the last minute scramble of getting one. Good luck to you and I wish you well....See MoreMy Dad Died last week unexpectedly
Comments (4)Hi, I just lost my father on january 29 he was 55..im only 20 and I live about 2 hours. From home...my father was the most amazing dad he gave me the world when I was growing up..my story's a little different though. He suffered from alcoholism the past 4 or so years. My brother and I used to tell him the next time we saw him was going to be at his grave. I have cried a little but now im back at home alone, and its hitting me so much harder. But I still feel like I should cry more I want to and I need to I do love him so very much, and im erasing the passed few years from my memory. Im trying to accept that fact that he's at peace now, but I think my anger is still there and I want it to go away so I can finally start grieving...... Im sorry for kinda turning this into my story but I want you to know your lucky you can let it out..and it might be good for you to go back to school, as much as its going to suck the more you let it out I bet its easier to accept it and move on. Good luck with everything life will go on... and until you meet him up there he will never leave your side....See MoreMy best friend, Linda, died today. Thank you for all your prayer
Comments (31)I'm sorry Dorothy. Tough loss for all. Since Noe is in low income, can they not adjust her rent to her income only? Are there any organizations that you can do the "leg" work on to get her some assistance/counseling for the changes in her life?...See Moretoday, i will lay my sweet bentley to rest
Comments (21)Oh, Nina...I am so sorry. I realized I hadn't been back since posting about Destiny.... I was, actually. Didn't have time to post...this is so sad... he is a beautiful boy.... I love that picture of him! How nice of your friends to frame it. I was coming to see if there were new posts on the Destiny thread... and thinking, at the same time, fingers crossed Bentley Boy is still hanging in there. I really am sorry for your loss. I'm glad you have Olivia and Destiny to help you through this. I think you'll find that Bentley is still with you and the pups and he will stay until he guides a new dog towards your loving home. He knows. Bentley knows. Hugs...See MoreUser
