Wrong. Time heals nothing. In my experience you never “get over” losing someone close to you, but you eventually get better at dealing with it.
Agreed. The “time heals” is more about you learning to adapt to your new life better as time goes on.
But time also makes you miss the person you lost more and more.

The first 24 hours I ever spent Without talking to my Dad.
My dad and i are very close. As i get older and watch him get older i find myself wondering when this day will come for me. The passage of time sucks.
RIP to your father.

We are coming upon the one year anniversary of our dad passing? It’s a bummer

You seem like a cool cat, baw. Give credit to your pops for that and appreciate the memories.

auggie,
I am vv sorry for the loss of your father. It seems the older we get, the more we realize the just how much was lost in losing a parent at a young age.

Correct. Time doesn't heal it. Time just makes you learn how to live with that gaping hole.

I'm not. My Dad though, he was the coolest of cool.
I'm a failure compared to him.

I'm sorry for you because I know how you feel. My dad passed away September 6th of this year. If I make it to my dad's age, I will have lived my entire life up to this point over again. It's scary to think about living so long without my dad. I know he wouldn't have let me, but I would have traded places with him faster than I can blink my eye. I love you, Dad.

You seem way more well adjusted than most.

Lost my dad in 2001, I was younger then, but I still find myself asking if he is proud how things turned out.

Lost my mom two years ago, hardest day of my life. We were in an accident together so I have this guilt that I was responsible for her death. I was a mommas boy too. It's brutal living every day with a feeling like you're the reason she's gone. It was an accident, there was nothing I could have done, but that still doesn't help.
Last month we lost my 18 year old nephew. The pain of losing him is hard to describe. He was my sisters whole world, I honestly don't know how a parent goes on after that. With my mom, we were at least able to say she lived until she was 70, and she's not in any pain any more. We took comfort in things. Losing an 18 year old child. Man. There ain't much to take comfort in. He was in his first semester of college and had the world ahead of him. Life just isn't fair.

Thank you Roger, all I can do is try.

We lost a 2 year old son many years ago. Seeing someone so small hurt so bad and there isn't anything you can do about it... I still think about him quite a bit.

I’m not sure I could handle that.

Sounds like he was a man worth missing.
It’s hard to lose people, but it would be even sadder if you had nobody that loved you or you loved enough to cry when one of you is gone.
I miss my daddy too.

Very sorry for your loss. Pains me to know that anyone has to experience that. I’m sure I speak for many when I say it’s my greatest fear.
The fact that you keep going and can talk about it shows strength and fortitude that I’m sure your family benefits from. Hope you can take solace in that.
