My Dad passed away on Saturday. It was sudden and painless, but his health has been in decline for a while now.

I feel like I'm floating in a pool of grief and if I don't tread water or hold myself proper, I'll slip under. I know I need to slip under, but just not yet.

I wrote out first drafts for his obituary and eulogy, which was not a writing exercise I enjoyed.

Also, if you are not married and have multiple close kin, get a will. Even if the will saying nothing but person A is my executer, that is better than not having a will.

Thank you. Like I said, it wasn't exactly unexpected, but still a surprise.

Thank you. I'm keeping myself distracted for now.

I am so sorry. I lost my dad last August - you have my utter sympathy and understanding. Be kind to yourself in the days to come.

Thank you. I keep having to tell myself everyone grieves in their own way and not to feel guilty I'm not breaking down into tears, though I am feeling the sadness.
