I'm very sorry for the loss of your father. My father was diagnosed with Dementia a couple of years before he died.

I am so sorry for your loss. I too lost my dad a few years ago, and I still think of him everyday. Then I lost my mom 4 months later. It was really hard on me. Its good to have really good friends and family to support you. My thughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I am so sorry for your loss. He was so lucky to have you there with him to help him through his illness. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

I took care of my Dad for 6 years. He also had Alzheimer's. He passed away 4/5/06. I miss him every day.

So sorry for your loss. This disease is just so cruel, not just for the individual, but the entire family, day in and day out. I hope that you find some measure of peace knowing he is free of its clutches and once again the loving, carefree father you remember. (((HUGS!))).

My heartfelt condolences to you, and prayers for your comfort and healing. Your dear father is no longer suffering, although his passing causes you pain. My aunt passed only a couple weeks ago from Alzheimer's and the last few years of her life had been empty and confusing for her. My sweet dad is currently very ill, withering away in a care facility, and I fear I will lose him any day...he is my world, so I understand your deep loss. There are never words enough to help someone's grieving but I wish you peace.

I already posted here not long after the OP posted. Does anyone know how she is doing? Has she posted since?

Just wondering. Every time I see this post it brings me right back to the time I was 16 and my sister came to the movie theater and told me our Daddy had died unexpectedly.

Then I go back to my husband dying in my arms (unexpectedly). I think of our 3 daughters who worshiped their Daddy. In the blink of an eye their lives changed (as did mine). He was their protector. The oldest two are happily married but their husbands understand about the love of a Father and daughter.

So, again, I'm wondering if anyone has seen how she is doing?

I am here. I'm sorry I haven't been here in the past several days. I have been helping mom take care of things and filling out Thank You cards to everyone. I went back to work today which that is my routine but I kept wanting to call mom to check on dad. I get home from work and I'm used to rushing around to get what I need to do done before going to my parents to help get dad cleaned up and ready for bed. Everything is just WRONG this evening. I feel like I am living in someone else's world right now. I have cried as I don't know what to do with myself. My life hasn't been mine for a long time, so it's like starting over and I have no idea how. I still have my Beachbody Coaching that is kinda keeping me busy but I am thinking "how can I help others when I can't help myself right now?" I just miss him so much. I'm trying to take it day at a time but I don't know what I'm doing honestly. I guess it will all come with time.

I want to thank all of you for sharing your stories with me of your family and what you have been through or what you have facing you. My heart goes out to all of you. Such beautiful stories of the love you have for your families....(((hugs))) to everyone.
