This is my first post on psycho-babble. I have been reading a lot of posts, but have not gotten the courage to post yet. Anyway...here goes:
Jai---I lost my father in May of this year. And I still can't believe he is gone...forever...never to be on this earth again. I miss him terribly (just as you describe missing your father). I was just dwelling on how heartbreaking it was...I and several other family members were with him in the hospital. He was in a sort of coma. He just stopped breathing and i was the first to realize that he was gone.
We had him cremated. So there is absolutely nothing left of him here. I recently found a bowl of his pudding with his spoon still in it, and I don't have the heart to get rid of the pudding, even though it is months old.Anyway...I chose to respond to this post because I understand where you are...exactly.
Crying now...and I'm at work. Better get myself under control...
Geramie
