I’m laid here in the darkness unable to sleep.
Dad died this evening.
His liver and his kidneys just couldn’t cope anymore.
Me, my brothers and my mum were all with him as he passed.
I am utterly broken.

I am so sad for you all. May he rest in a peace. 🙏🏻

You wrote this in a previous post:
“I love sitting beside him, chatting and then holding his hand while he snoozes.”
I hope you can fully understand how much this meant to your dear father. Many people face death alone, frightened and lonely as they deteriorate. But you were there. I can still remember holding the hand of both my mother and my father as they lay dying. Trust that you gave him the greatest gift possible… Your presence and your love. He was never alone. I realize that right now all you feel is pain and that no words anyone offers can really change that for you. But keep these replies from people because in a couple of months you will start to draw comfort from them. Hard days lie ahead. But you held your father’s hand. He knew he was loved by you and that is really all that matters. 😥❤️😥
This is such a well written post and echoes everything I would say, but since I can't say it any better, I will not try to improve on it.
I would just say I am very sorry to hear this and shocked also, so can only imagine what a terrible time this must be for your family. Keep each other close, as you have done so far and I hope that you at least get some explanation soon. All the very best to you all.⚘⚘
What a heartfelt and sincere reply. Anyone who has ever lost a loved one will identify with this.
Dear justdontgoogle, it is true, at the moment you are in the darkest place, words are useless, I can only say may God bless and sustain you in this time of sorrow.

Beautifully written MaryLynn. Theres nothing I can even say that hasnt been captured here in this messege.
All I can say is that I am sorry for your loss. It happened so suddenly and without answers. My heartfelt thoughts go out to you in these moments. May his memory once soon again show you his light still shines even in the darkest hours of your sorrows.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Sincere condolences to you and your family. Your poor dad, he went so quickly from the start of his illness! It’s awful how your whole world can change in the blink of an eye. It must have been heartbreaking but it was lovely that you were all with him. All my love, Pam xxx

I'm so sorry for your loss, try not to think of his end, but of those special times you spent together. Such a sad time.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. It is all the more tragic having come so suddenly and without an explained reason. I hope medics are going to be able to answer the 'Why?' for you all to at least explain all this.
My thoughts are very much with you all.
Katie xx
I'm so sorry to hear this. My heart goes out to you. I hope that you can take comfort in the fact that you did everything that you possibly could and that you were there for him when he needed you and that must have been a great comfort to your dad. Thinking of you and your family. Alf
My heart goes out to you and the family.
You will find comfort believe or not as time passes in the knowledge that you were there for him , I found this helped me when I lost my dear dad in 2012 .God bless you 🙏
I’m sorry to hear this, staying strong together as a family will help you get through all the pain and heartache. Sending hugs and will keep you all in my prayers. Jane x

We are so very, very sorry to hear this dreadful news. The last few weeks have been so difficult for your family.
You are all very much in our thoughts.

Your lovely Grandad will always live on through you and your memories. Take care xx
So very sad for you, please accept my sincere condolences. Jaycee
I am so sorry to hear this. Please do try and take some comfort that he knew you were doing everything you could to help him and that he knew you were there with him, he was surrounded by love.
Ohh so sad and so sorry ☹️.
Hope that you can recover, a bit at least, soon.
Milles
I’m so sorry for your loss
Love and thoughts with you all, may he R.I.P 🙏😘
There are no words which will ease your pain, but I pray you find solace in wonderful memories, and knowledge in the fact that your Dad passed peacefully, knowing he was loved. x
We are so very saddened by this news.
It is a great shock for you all.
Please know that your ‘being there’ would have brought great comfort. It is heartwarming that you all wanted to be there for him, and that it was made possible. Even with the best will intended it is not always the case.
It is important that you now all draw together and give each other comfort and practical support.
The time for questions will come, but you have many practical things to consider in the days ahead, so in the meantime perhaps you should just concentrate on being kind to yourselves. You will get through this.
Oh Dear Lord, I am so sorry for your Dad's passing. I send my love & prayer's to you and your family at this sad time, but a small comforting thought is that he is in a better place without any suffering. Please take care,
David
So sorry to hear of his passing I will light a candle for him and his memory
No words will comfort you or your loving family at this time, I can still recall that feeling of numbness when My Dad was taken from us ,I was 25 The ups and downs of these past few weeks for you all trying to ensure your poor Dad got the help he needed. Before this he sounded like a very fit and active person, all the running he did was pretty amazing for anyone, let alone at 74. With this in mind perhaps you can eventually find comfort in the fact that his suffering is over. I know you wanted him to be here no matter what.This could have meant he had years of suffering ahead of him . With him being so active and full of life it could have devastated and destroyed him emotionally. Eventually all your happy memories will replace some of the deep sorrow, until then i hope you will all find a way through this, being there for each other. Love Hazelx
I am so very sad to read this...…If you need to call the helpline I am working today. Take care...
So sorry for your loss
I'm truly sorry to hear this news, I know at this time words will not give you great comfort, but remembering you did all you could for your dear father, you advocated for him, found this forum and tried to find answers. You were there for him, and with him at the end. Please take comfort in these facts, you could have done no more. As someone else mentioned hopefully in the future the images of his suffering will be replaced by happy memories of your wonderful, fit, active and happy dad, and it will be these images that will stay with you and all your family.
My thoughts are with you.
