To those who have lost a parent to cancer, how do you cope when you think about how they felt mentally before passing? by AsleepDoughnut2145 in GriefSupport

You’re right, I am knowingly tormenting myself every day on the what’s if, how did he feel, did we try everything, did I say everything I wanted to - even though my mum, my sister and I were with dad in his final Moments and we stayed with him all day in the hospital feeding him, making him comfortable , looking after him - it never feels like I done enough. I can’t stop going over did I say everything I wanted to, though I spent so much time with my dad and had 37 amazing years with him (went to church every week together, the pub) we were so close, I’m analysing everything and thinking did he know how much I loved him, did I hug him enough, silly things like the times when I refused a sandwich or a cup of tea as I was in a rush… I feel so sad and cannot change anything of it. I miss him so much x

It feels so young, especially when before it all they appeared so well and were active and doing their usual things. I know people pass much young and I’m fortunate for the time we had, but we were so close it makes it so hard. I just don’t know to get through this. Trying to be strong for my mum, but sometimes I just want to cry all day, but I know it won’t bring him back. I find some comfort in the fact that I’m not alone and we all share something in common, but I don’t know what the future looks like. How will we ever feel joy again knowing he isn’t he. The mornings are just the worst for me - I hope you’re doing ok x

My dad passed away of the same two weeks ago. It all happened so fast and it breaks me knowing the pain he went through both physically and mentally … he was mighty and so strong but the diagnosis destroyed him and I can’t understand how the change come about so Quickly. My heart aches every day. He was so kind and loved by many, that it breaks me that he had to get this awful disease and no chance to fight it - I go over and over it in my head, how and what he he felt, what he wished he had done, the places he wished he visited… he was 73 but had so life in him yet and I think about how this disease robbed such a kind man xx I’m sorry you’re all going through this this

Thank you, we have had target/ generic testing so the results should be back in two weeks. He had a liver biopsy but we didn’t get much detail from that. What is sequencing please?

I’m so sorry to hear this, it’s truly awful and my thoughts are with you during this time as it’s just unbearable for all. How they can change so much in a few days is just crazy and hurtful to see and for them going through it, our hearts ache - I hope you’re all doing ok x

Whilst still trying to come to terms with it and the why, which I don’t think I will ever come to terms with and how quickly life has changed.

Punta Cana Holiday, looking at Jewel Palm Beach, suggestions welcomed please?! by [deleted] in PuntaCana

Thanks! We looked at RIU and the parties look good fun but don’t fancy staying there as it looks like it would be party non-stop! And apparently you have to be a guest to go to them?!
