My dad is dead...

Don't worry. I don't need condolensces right now... I might next week though...

My dad died yesterday in a hospital... he was there for two months because of an auto-immune disease called Wegeners (and something else with a G).
It was like his body was killing him. It affected his lungs, his organs...
When we first got to the hospital months ago, we thought he just had some pneumonia, and he would be there for a couple of days. The days turned to weeks, and then months. Finally, yesterday, he died. I'm still kinda in shock, but... it will all settle in on me next week, probably. Luckily, I was there when he died, with my mom and sister, and our close family friends.
All this morning and afternoon my mom has been setting up everything for his funeral... and she doesn't sound sad at all...
My church and school has been really nice all throughout his hospilization...
My dad was a big impact on the school I go to. He was a high school chemistry teacher, and everyone loved him. Quite frankly, I'm afraid to go back to school... it'd just be so weird. Everyone would either avoid me, or overreact.
I'm glad though, that my dad is with the Lord right now.

 

Wow, umm, I'm sorry for your loss, it's ok though, your friends will probably make you feel better. i can understand how it would be awkward but your true friends will stick up for you. Hopefully you won't let this depress you, your dad wouldn't want that.;)

 

Oh....I feel bad for you, but you're right, at least he's with the Lord right now. :D

 

Yeah, I assume it's going to be painfully akward. Even when people pity-shower you, it isn't as horrible as it seems. Last December when my father died no one in my school knew except for the teachers and accompanying staff members. I don't know maybe it's just because of the way he died that made it more of a discreet thing. Plus, he had no relationships with people in the school.

You have my sympathies. I didn't have much of an endearing relationship with my Dad in the end, but I can relate. Numbness tends to set in after incidents like this, although at least you have a large number of people to grieve with over such a mutual loss.

 

... Well, really, me saying "I'm so sorry" - since I'm a total stranger just *lurking* the forums - probably really won't help you, though I really am. Funny, a whole lotta people died within the past few months. Friend's friend's father, my friend's dog was run over by some drunken driver, the VT incident, a week ago my friend's grandfather died, and then this kid's brother died from some... brain... tumor thing.

But anyway, even if you don't want our sympathy, I shall lend it to you anyway. I'm sure there was a reason, but truly, though I really am a stranger, I'm sorry. It'll take a while, probably, to get over it, but the best wishes to you.

-Note to self: add yet another death to prayer list. Oh boy. >_>-

 

My deepest regrets&sympathy to you and your family. I know what youre going through but you have the right approach. You will be okay; these wounds will take time to heal, but they always do. Take care-


"u have my sympathies. I didn't have much of an endearing relationship with my Dad in the end, but I can relate. Numbness tends to set in after incidents like this, although at least you have a large number of people to grieve with over such a mutual loss."
I am so sorry for you as well Alice ;____; We all connected by the loss of a father I suppose. Its really tough *^*

 

Really, don't be. <:3 He was just kind of there. I never really knew him, and considering how he showed his character when he died, I don't think I would have wanted to. His death wasn't as much a sad thing in my life, because I've become far more mature with it.

Also: You are aware that this forum has a quoting feature, right? :P

 

*gasp* That's horrible...I'm glad to hear that you're ok for now. Well, at least death was better than the pain your dad had to endure.

 

I know, I get lazy with my quotes...bad habbit I guess...sorry:o
Youre right about the dying thing...maturity does get strenghened.
I never knew my dad either, but I was too young to remember him...

 

yea, it will be wierd. ppl will probably avoid u or be oversympathetic to the point where u just want them to go away. but.....there's no malice in what i'm about to say and it doesn't feel rite even as i'm typing it, but u don't seem to mind very much about his death. but i think i understand

 

:[ im sorry I know what its like though...my mom died when I was about 7 or 8, it was really hard for me because I was so young, but now she's....well..a stranger to me now :[ I dont like it, but even though you dont want me saying this but im TRULEY sorry I really am

 

Dude Im like so sorry for your dad. Hope you'll be okay.

 

That's bad, I am sorry for you.
I agree it must be awkward.
It's hard to lose someone close to you, but eventually you get over it and hope that they have it better where they have passed on.
I don't know where that might be( No, I am not christian) but I bet it is nice.

 

so sad....

 

Indeed. I've noticed that there have been numerous deaths this spring for some reason. It's quite strange.

 

Wow I'm so sorry dude, I hope you feel better. It's best if you don't beat yourself about this though because it'll just make yourself feel worse...and I dont think your dad would want that. I hope you recover well.

 

Im very sorry to hear that
At least..hes in a better place

 

It truly is strange, because spring is known as the season where things come to life.

 

Oh no...I'm so sorry. At least you know that he doesn't have to suffer around Earth anymore.

Everything will be okay though...I'm really sorry. *hugs*

 

Wow dude so sorry for you I really am, but I'm to much of a nice person to wait until next week to say that, but I know that you need your space and I can rspect that. I hope you hold up okay RoxasNoxas, and always remember, he's in a better place now.
