re: For those of you who lost your father, how old were you when he passed?

20

51

Lost my mom a year ago. Still dealing with intense grief. Need to find a better way to handle it than drinking, because it’s making it worse.

I was 34. He was 61. Honestly? No impact on my life other than brief shock at his unexpected and untimely death. He had little to no impact on me in a positive way. Sad but true.

Same here…he chose to not be a part of my life. I found ou in may that he died in February. Still not sure how I feel

36. Miss him every day. Sorry for what you’re doing through.

I was 34 and he was 64. Died of long cancer. My Mom died two years later at 59. My kids never know my parents.

I was 51 and it’s still not easy. I dream about him a lot. He was a good man. He loved others above himself.

I was 33, Dad was 64. Died after battling lung cancer for a little over a year. Lost my mom suddenly from an aneurysm when I was 19.

Both deaths hit me emotionally in different ways due to their manner and my age at the time they happened. Still, I miss them both dearly every day.

The pain of loss is strong and deep at first, but does become manageable over time. I am sorry to hear of you and your father's situation. I wish you both peace and comfort.
