    Dealing with loss

    My dad passed away last night. I watched him lay from afar under a white sheet in the middle of a street. It's 7:12 am. Gloomy day. Looks like it's going to rain. Hand is still throbbing. Think it's broken. Can I deal with this? Im afraid.......

    Re: Dealing with loss

    Sorry man. There's nothing like losing a mom or dad. Just remember that he would want you to keep going. I remember a while back when my dad lost his dad(my grandpa) at about your age and it was hard on all of us. Anyways, just keep going, do your best, and keep answering my questions in the java forum!

    Re: Dealing with loss

    My deepest condolences go out to you and your family.

    I remember how it felt when my mom passed a few years ago. Loosing a parent is probably one of the hardest things to endure. Dont take things out in a negative way. Your only going to be hurting yourself. Your dad wouldnt want that.

    Like already posted, remember the good times and that he will always be close to you if you look in your heart and memories.
