THANK YOU Update on my dad

Hello, I posed here a week ago out of desperation because my dad was in the hospital.

I just want to give an update, my dad passed away two days ago with my brother and I by his side.

I want to come on here and say thank you to everyone who offered words of encouragement and support and prayers. I especially want to thank the person who told me that my dad could hear me despite the fact that he wasn’t responsive. I don’t think I would have said everything I needed to say to my dad if you didn’t tell me that.

Yeah, thank you guys. God bless.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Great job finding the courage to reach out, and to follow up. You are doing so well. If you'd like to talk, I do volunteer peer support for anyone. No cost and no income requirements. Send me a private message and I'll send you the discord contact info. Sometimes, just having someone to talk to who isn't going to change what they think of you is really relieving during crisis. Either way, it really does get easier, one step at a time.
