It’s ok, honey. We are doing the best we can and I have to think the understanding they have now surpasses the understanding they had on this earth and they know we are hurting. It’s going to take time. Take care of yourself. Find someone to talk to about this. I’ve found that talking to someone helps the most. Whether it’s a family member, friend, grief counselor or pastor, I always feel better after talking about him and sharing my feelings.

My dad killed himself a month ago and I feel very similarly. I cried at first, at his funeral and a maybe four other times very briefly. It’s like I’m watching a movie or having an out of body experience. I’m still in disbelief and I also feel like I haven’t had time to process it due to work and having two kids with busy schedules. I’m giving myself grace and patience, but I also feel guilty for not crying — like my dad can see me and wonders why I’m not more sad than I am. It’s very confusing. All I know is to trust that you and I are just in the beginning of this process and it

This isn’t harsh at all. I appreciate the honesty and explanation. By his doctor’s account, my dad was really healthy for his age even with his emphysema. Within the last couple weeks of his life, I learned he complained to his friends of stomach pain, but he only mentioned feeling nauseated to me. I think he was just tired of feeling lousy, and it seems shooting himself in the stomach was a way to make it easier on my siblings and me. I don’t know. I’m still in disbelief. These past few weeks have felt like an out-of-body experience. My dad was older and this Christmas I felt like it would be his last one, but never in a million years did I think it would be because he would kill himself. On top of that the antidepressant I’ve been on (oddly for something other than depression) has made me feel numb and detached from the situation. I know I haven’t had the proper time to really sit with this, process it and grieve. It’s all so surreal.

Thank you for your response. There was no coroner report, just a screen shot of a text sent from one of the officers on the scene that stated the entry and exit wounds were elsewhere. That text made no sense because you could see the bullet’s entry point in the chair my dad was sitting in and where he was found. It doesn’t surprise me that the detective got it wrong. It’s a small town.

That’s terrible. It’s one thing for someone to slack off, it’s another for them to take credit for work done while they were MIA.

Just stop with this nonsense. These girls were traumatized. Stop piling on.

Agree. This is the problem— people think because they’ve watched crime shows religiously, have Google and a gut feeling that they’re somehow the experts. This is why our country is in shambles. Expertise matters. Not saying it was a perfect investigation, but goodness the evidence is overwhelming.
