sometimes its easier to talk about my dad like he's not dead. :(
- I released my dads ashes off an island where I go spear fishing in the mornings, (he was a bad ass spear fisherman) I talk as if he hears me when i huntmoldero
- like a crazy personmoldero
- if reincarnation exists and he came back as a fish in that area, I probably killed him and ate himmoldero

- Now you have someone specific to talk to out there, moldero. It's all Good.
xNairn - I find myself using the present tense when I talk about him because I don't want to trigger myself while explaining that he's dead.shellie
- My dad died 6 years ago and I still can't talk about him or look at a photo without crying. :(Melanie
- It never goes away, just be prepared to one day have a trigger reminder and your heart breaks all of the sudden.BonSeff
- But also know your were always loved. And hold that feeling.BonSeff
- I talked to my dad on the phone the day after he died. I’m still not sure if it was a waking dream or not. Middle of the day, phone rings and it’s him.Gnash
- I knew he was dead while I was talking to him. I’m still processing that conversation all these years laterGnash
- I have to think about it in small packets - if I ponder the whole talk at once I think I’d meltGnash

- Whatever works, Shellie. 15 years later and I'm better at accepting it, but I still have those moments of talking to an empty seat.bezoar

- things like this always remind me to give my dad a call...
I've been talking to him every day throughout this corona virus thing...exador1 - I'd been working on a blog post for my company, and my father in law has been helping to write it... it's a conversation between us about living in COVID timesexador1

'hey' been writing something with the Father in law... all about living during a pandemic... would you like to write something?exador1 - 'sure'
