[PA_jen]

For those that have been reading my post.. My Dad was fully vaccinated and still got covid. Please let this post be a warning. Don't let your guard down. Please use mask and social distancing.

Sorry I am on my tablet.

[3catwoman3]

97. As sad as these losses are, it always does seem worse, if that...

...is possible, when it occurs on or near a day that should be a happy day.

Wishing you strength as you adjust to this inevitable change.

112. ' I lost my mom when I was 13. My dad

acted as a mother and father to me and he was amazing. He passed away 10 years ago at 67 of Pancreatic Cancer. I miss him every single day. I know how awful that pain is, I am truly sorry. Losing one's parent, no matter how old we are, is one of the worst things us as humans can go through.

[PA_jen]

115. I am so sorry

[dewsgirl]

124. Thank you, I can't imagine the pain you are going through.

I have read more than a few of these stories. Although I think when I bring it up in conversation, people think I'm crazy. It is beyond scary.

[PA_jen]

131. Right now I am numb. I don' want to think and I can't cry. I feel guilty

I am not crying. I know it is a process.
