Thinking of you @Anastasia and feeling heartbroken on your behalf. Stay strong lovely ... not just for everyone around you, but for you too. Accept help when offered, because people really care and want to do something to feel useful.
With you in spirit and watching over your shoulder.

Beautiful @Anastasia
I’m thinking by now your dads funeral is over. I can only imagine how drained you are. In fact all of you
it will take time. Grief is different for everyone. So pls cry if you need to. Your dad will be with you forever. He’ll be watching over you all.
so for now I hope you can sit and take a deep breath. Be with your loved ones.
I hope your mum is ok as best can be.
snd your boys ??
thinking of you lovely. It’s never easy saying goodbye to a parent.
big big hugs to you @Anastasia xxxxxx
