My dad passed away last night in hospice. I spent time with him this week and let him know how much I loved him. I’m grateful he’s free of pain, but I am heartbroken. A lovely, gruff, shy, quiet, funny man. I never doubted once that he loved me, and that is a neat trick. Love you, pop. - ThreadSky

Really sorry to hear this. The death of a parent is bleak, even when anticipated.
Hospices give wonderful support in challenging situations.
My wonderful Dad died last year & I hope that in time warm memories of your own Dad will help you to cope with his loss.
Look after yourself for him x

kathyodonnell.bsky.social•37 days ago

I'm glad to hear you had time together to say how much you loved him and to know with such clarity that he loved you always. It's all that matters, really. Xx

I’m very sorry to hear this. My father died a few years ago and I’m always grateful I had the chance to tell him I loved him and say goodbye. I hope that will be a comfort to you too. He sounds like a wonderful man and I’m sure he must have been hugely proud of you. Much love to you & your family.
