Well Erin, I'm very sorry 2 hear abt ur dad!!! nothing i say will change how u feel. I'm only 58 days in my grieving lost of my Beautiful Paige Courtney. She was taken away so violently that i don't feel hope yet. I yern for Paige everyday and night. So we all hear in due time and all of that, but of course we all grieve differently. I cry all the time, and I don't care what anyone thinks. So I just say this take as much time as u need. No one can say when u have cried, and grieved enough!! Only u know when that time is. Thanks 4 listening Erin. I hope things get better 4 all of us.

it never goes away my friend! Talking to others who do truely understand like myself really does help! I lost my first child out of 4 children. It was my daughter Jessica when she turned 3 only 5 months after her 3rd b-day. I recently in 09 lost my Fiancee. I'm telling you this, because I do understand it is not ever easy! The longing to see, and talk and hug them, etc. Keep communication going. Me plus others, friends on this site who understand. Talking, crying, laughing, remebering the wonderful things about him that gave you and your family joy. Keep his memorie alive. It's a roller coaster ride of emotions that grief displays in our lives, ups and downs, round and round of emotions! I miss my Dad too sweetie
