My biggest loss, today

My dad, that I will forever remember his words he gave to me prior to this journey and then again as he seen my updated pictures.

I feel sick when I even put my water to my lips this morning, please give me the strength to get through this rough week ahead of me. Something I can never imagine, I have never turned to food when this upset and hopefully I can manage during this time.

Oh, no! I'm so sorry to hear that!

Be kind to yourself over the next several days. If you slip a little, don't be too hard on yourself. Grieve, come here and vent as often as you need, and be as strong as you can. The rest will come together in time.

*hugs*

I am terribly sorry for your loss! My heart goes out to you. It is so very difficult to lose a parent. I hope that God gives you strength and comfort during the coming days and weeks.

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss.  You will be in my thoughts and in my heart today.  You will get through this, but it's going to be rough.  I know because I lost my Dad three weeks after my son was born, and I thought I would collapse with grief.  It was awful, but time helps.  I hope that you are surrounded by people that love and support you and that you have faith that he will now be your guardian angel and speak to you through your heart.  I know my Dad does all the time.  Take very good care of yourself now, he would really want you to be kind to yourself.  Huge hugs.

Thanks, I am worried about not being able to eat. I can't even tolerate water right now. I with a jolly 3 yr old right now and it is rough because I have packing to do today and prepare my kids for the week long away from home. I guess it is best to bring all my vitamins and protein powder at least hopefully I will be able to drink something. I am worried about my strength if I don't. How will I do this if I can't even manage water right now?

I was here writing down the ingredients to go out to the store today for your suoup, it is sitting right infront of me at this moment, then the knock came at my door, it was my sister telling me the news. All my family is gone home now but I have a specialist appointment for my teenager to get a cast on in the morning tomorrow and have to make it then I can hit the highway.

My 3 yr old ask me if I was ok that I just mentioned papa was gone and then they said that papa will come home. I don't quite know how to deal with a 3 yr old right now and hoping I can find a sitter away.

Jackie, PM me if you need to talk.  I will give you my phone number.  You can call anytime.  I am so sorry.  Do whatever you need to do to take care of yourself and your children. Do not allow yourself to fall of the wagon, to stop eating and drinking.  Your Dad would insist on this.  Everything you do for the next few weeks to take care of yourself, dedicate it to your father and his love for you.  Do it in his name.  It gets easier with time, but it never goes away.

I'm sorry for your loss.  I pray that the memories help you hold him close to your heart.

Take time to heal and do your best with food.  *hugs*

 I'm so so sorry for your loss.  One minute at a time.....

Big hugs!   My father was one of my best friends.    I recently suffered a lost and I don't let myself eat unless I am hungry and I have to be there to experience the food not midlessily eat.

Big hugs again!

I'm sorry for your loss :(

Please make sure to take care of yourself.  If you find it hard to eat, please try to drink some protein shakes, so that you can stay strong physically.

My thoughts and prayers are with you :(
