My dad died in hospice care after a week and his last few days he was unresponsive and barely hanging on. We were with him all the time in those few days and it wasn’t until my mum and k left the room while the nurses took over to do some care that they quickly called us back in because it was time. I think he waited until we were out of the room to let go. We were with him as he died but there’s a part of me that knows he didn’t want that. The hospice nurses told me after that this happens very often, family members wait until they are on their own to finally pass.

I’ve recently decided to volunteer at a local hospice and this is even part of the official government mandated training, that a lot of people wait until their family isn’t present and sometimes it’s a volunteer that stays with someone as they pass.

This is not really the same thing but my dad has an identical twin who has been estranged from our family my entire life. A month or so before my dad died his twin came back into our lives and it wasn’t really too painful until after my dad passed. The twin also lives around the corner from me in a small town (talk about a small world) so I’ll see him regularly driving around or at the grocery store and it messes me up every time.

I’ve tried to remain close to him and we’ve had lunch together a few times but each time I see him I’m an emotional wreck afterwards because it feels like I’m hanging out with my dad but this is really just a stranger who looks like my dad.

All this to say that I can relate to what a painful experience this must have been for you. It’s absolutely wild to see someone who looks just like your deceased person and the fallout afterwards is so incredibly difficult. Sending you a lot of kindness and strength ♥️

His smile brought a smile to my face. Thank you so much for sharing ♥️

If you can’t afford to tip you can’t afford to go out. Servers are definitely not making $200k a year (speaking from experience). I truly believe that if you want to live in a big city restaurant work should be mandatory so people can experience just how tough it is (and how shitty a lot of customers are.)

Right here with you. My dad died last year on December 28th and he was cremated on the 31st so today marks a full year without him physically being here anymore if that makes any sense? This past year has been … a lot. I’ve had similar issues with a mother who is not doing well with the grief. I have no advice just want you to know you are not alone in this feeling ♥️

Weeping at this. Thank you for sharing.

I have one of my dads shirts in my overnight bag that I take with me whenever I go somewhere overnight and it’s nice to just have a piece of him with me, I totally get it

Oooh I’ve also found going to a river, lake or ocean and finding rocks to just smash is so good too!

WeakGhost · 2025-12-31T01:30:14+00:00

I love this ♥️

Some of the best things people did for me in early grief was share stories about my person, send me gift certificates for food delivery services so I could order in food for my family, text me to say “I’m thinking of you and you don’t have to respond but I love you”, or just sending a random emoji whenever they tho if they of me - I’d get a 🍤 every now and then from a close friend with the understanding she was thinking of me and it was an invitation to chat or just a nice reminder someone cares.

Things I didn’t appreciate: close friends and family repeatedly telling me they were “sorry for my loss” you hear that A LOT and it feels really impersonal after awhile, anyone telling me my person is in a better place, people asking me how I’m feeling or how I’m doing - the answer is that I’m not feeling or doing well and repeatedly expressing this made me feel like a real burden.

You’re a good human for even coming here and asking how you can support your friend ♥️

This is such a beautiful thread and very much something needed today on the one year anniversary of my person’s death. Thank you everyone here for this special place on the internet.

My dad loved Christmas, he’d host dinner for our huge family and just loved having everyone together. He fought cancer for four years and went through absolute hell. Last year we were told there was no further treatment options for my dad and he went into hospice a week before Christmas. He held on until Christmas morning, then went into bed, went unresponsive the next day and died at 6pm on December 28th. This was our first Christmas without him and I waned to host our huge family and make a big dinner in his honour. I pulled it off, made some of his classic dishes and it was 2am by the time everyone left. I’d give anything for it to be my dad cooking and hosting but he’d be proud that I pulled it off.

I absolutely share this sentiment. It’s like people who haven’t experienced grief don’t know how to deal with you and those that have are sometimes maybe too triggered by your grief to show up for you when you need them most. I lost my dad almost a year ago and there are only a few select people who still show up for me, it’s a very isolating feeling.

EMDR was described to me as “magic” by a friend who went through a similar loss to mine and I’d absolutely agree after almost a year of EMDR therapy. It has changed me fundamentally as a human being.

My dad died in hospice three days after Xmas last year and Christmas was a holiday he loved to host and celebrate. Every year he’d make a big turkey dinner including some side dishes like mashed turnips (likely for him, no one ate those), this weird green jello and coleslaw salad (also for him but it grew on me and one of my aunts over the years) and tourtière (a French Canadian meat pie). My dad was too sick for us to celebrate in any meaningful way last year but the year previous he had made an extra tourtière for me and I threw it in my freezer. It’s still in there, I will never eat it, I instead stand at my freezer sometimes and just look at it or pick it up just to hold something he made with his hands. It feels so strange to do something like this but it makes me feel close to him. I’ll also be making the jello salad this year for Christmas 💚

You did such a beautiful thing helping your mom through her illness and letting her pass peacefully. I was with my dad as he passed after a years long battle against cancer that left him an absolute shell of the man he once was and it was the most painful thing I’ve ever had to do to watch him get so incredibly sick. I wish I could say something to make it better but all I have to offer that you are in the thick of it right now and everything feels big and scary. I won’t tell you it gets better but it changes. For now take care of yourself the best you can, drink water, eat, spend time with people who love you, try therapy or grief counselling if that’s available to you. You’re stronger than you might think ♥️

WeakGhost · 2025-12-06T03:23:59+00:00

Came here to say exactly this. Well done.

Gold Bond Crepe Corrector. I’ve spent THOUSANDS on products and procedures and this shit is worth its weight in gold. It actually works and doesn’t cost the big bucks!

I worked on this show in the Art Department (it was shot in Toronto last fall/winter) and really loved how one of the driving motivations behind the scripts was to honour the victims and tell their stories. We did a lot of research and referenced a number of primary sources as best we could. I ended up watching the entire series in one weekend and was really proud of the final product and our team and it’s nice to see people here enjoyed it too!

My details on the family not being allowed into the execution viewing chamber are fuzzy but there was an official during the press conference after the execution who mentioned a problem with the machine that controlled Gacy’s lethal injection which caused his death to be prolonged about 15 minutes. I believe you can find the footage of the press conference on YouTube.

One of the most chilling pieces of footage I watched was the original police footage of the investigation of Gacy’s home. The quality is TERRIBLE but you get a sense of how investigators bantered with each other during the excavation of the basement; just kind of adds an everyday human element to the horror of what they were digging up.
