Big warm hugs to you...and your children..
My dad passed away on the 19th march aged 59, I am 31 and my children are 8,5,1..
My dad took over the role of the their father as well as being their grandfather for much of their lives as my husband does very long hours..Dad taught my boys so much...
My dad was our everything and he did everything for us...Its a great whole that can never be filled by anyone...
we will never understand how or why and coming to terms with it? i am taking more steps back than forward, i feel as though everyday its a battle to go on....
But we are survivers and i beleive Dad is waiting for us to met him again one day...
