Sorry for your loss, bruv. I know it’s hard. My mother, who is still here with us, always says, I know how it feels to be on this earth without you…you don’t know how it will feel without me. That’s a hard statement and a hard truth. I pray that you remain strong and that you continue to make your Pop’s proud from above. One love.
That’s such a clutch statement. You mother is wise one. Thank you.
So sorry for your loss home team. You are your fathers legacy. Continue to honor him in how you live your life. And peace and respect to him for raising a solid real Black Man like you in these trying conditions we face. Prayers up to you and your loved ones.
Trying the best I can everyday now family. His legacy will certainly live on through me. Thank you.
Brother I totally understand you. As primary caregivers he knows everything you did for him. He would want you to continue on and be there for your family. There is no way he could think you are leaving him behind. So many people don't have that care you provided for your Dad. Trust me I blamed myself at first and felt the same way you do now. We honored our fathers by being there for them. He is so proud of you man. He'll continue to live on through you and your son. Honor his legacy and celebrate his life.
Thank you bro. I really needed to hear this from a caregivers POV.
My father fell ill about 2 weeks ago, I really thought i was gonna make one these posts soon. Today, he started to get better after being in the hospital for several days...Condolences bro, keep your head up!!
I’m so grateful that he turned a corner and is still here with you. Cherish these moments going forward. Peace and blessings to him, yourself and your family.
Blessings and prayers to you. The bond and love you shared is evident. I haven’t lost my dad but my mom was what your dad is to you. I’m sure he’d be proud knowing he left you, his legacy and bloodline to carry on and have the best life you can live. Honor him by being the man he’s raised you to be and enjoy your life to the fullest knowing that he prepared you for everything. RIP and Amen.
A loss is a loss and I’m sorry for yours.
Funny you mention that cause I keep re-watching the scene in Black Panther where Tchalla sees his father in the ancestral homeland and tells him he’s not ready to be without him. I have to keep reminding myself that I am ready and have been for a long time but in these moments, it keeps slipping away at times.
Thank you for the reminder.
My Condolences Brother.......
This is beautiful. Thank you.
Sending prayers and positive vibes your way. Counseling is a great idea and will help you heal.
Thank you. I’m hoping it helps bring these walls down and allows for some more vulnerability and in turn, begin the rebuild.
Peace brother. Sorry for your loss. Mine passed in July of 2020 with me and my brother at his side at home.
It was an interesting experience to watch someone you love die in front of your eyes. You see it coming and you know it’s happening, but you’re completely helpless in the moment. All you can really do is accept it all and grieve.
Stay strong, fam. Embrace the feelings. Grieving is a natural human emotional response. Take the time you need to recover, and don’t shy away from returning to some type of normalcy.
So sorry for your loss.
You said it right though my bro .. helpless is the word. When you feel you’ve done everything in the book and some, and still it falls short. It’s a helpless feeling.
I need to remind myself to not be in such a rush to get back to normal too. The time away and being able to vent and talk is far more important and is helping immensely.
Again, I thank you all for your words.
