[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And I feel numb! It feels strange and unreal that I am this ok with watching the sudden decline in my father’s health due to end stage cancer. We are very close. I know this will destroy me yet I cannot seem to access any feelings right now. Is this normal? [/quote] It is, and I’m very sorry. My father passed the end of December, and you have a greater awareness of your shock than I did. I was in total auto-pilot because I was his caregiver with a terminal illness. His actual death hit me like a ton of bricks. It’s still very difficult. It will be okay, I promise. Give him a hug, hold his hand, and tell him how much you love him. He will be at peace, and you will survive his death. Just be kind to yourself, and the weeks after as you try to process this change. It will get hard, and one day when you think of him you’ll smile instead of cry. He’s very lucky to have you. I’ll pray for you both. Hang in there. [/quote]
