[quote=Anonymous]I lost my dad quite horribly to Covid at the start of the pandemic. He had been sick for a long time, so all of that to say my situation was different than yours. It took me six months before I was able to really think about my dad except how he died. Then for a number of months it was like I couldn’t think about him at all, good or bad. And then at about a year things just…settled. I thought of him frequently, but not constantly. Images and memories of him throughout my lifetime came back, not just memories of his sickness and death. Now it is like I have all of my dad’s selves living in my heart, the young man who was my dad when I was a child, the middle aged man who parented me graciously through middle school, the old but always-up-for-anything man who adored his grandson. Give yourself time, OP. Let yourself grieve.[/quote]
