On saturday our lovely dad passed away. He died as he lived, listening to jazz music and proving the medical profession wong by going well beyond all their estimations!! It was as nice as we could have made it. To anyone who has a parent with IPF and is scared of what is to come, it was nowhere near as traumatic as i expected and i am just relieved now that dad can rest. Also, although i haven't posted on here very much, it has been so helpful
and reassuring to know we haven't been alone. Good wishes to everyone on here xxx

My heart goes out to and your family, coming from the daughter of a man with IPF too. I am crying as I type this and know that inevitably we will be in the same position and it seems to be getting nearer and nearer. I'm only 36, similar age to you and I want my dad for a lot longer. You are in my thoughts and thank you so much for sharing on here and taking away one of my biggest fears.
