Well my dads funeral is on friday , 12pm AEDT , (used to saying that with my radio show website)
its been such a tough week, emotionally for all of us , don't know how I will handle not having both my folks around now..
Any way the pic I am showing is what we will give out for those who go to the funeral and for a few relies we will have to post who cant get there for distance etc.... its so strange going to dad's when no one is there....cant describe the feeling I get when there.... Its like he is there but not there... and I guess untill this week is over it hasn't had much closure.. hmmm cant describe how i am now but I do feel lost, flat chat for 3 months or so now nothing... oh well, next chapter of my life is now starting I guess......
Hugs to any one else going thru similar ...It aint easy ....
Lovely photos of your mum and dad, Milo - remember them like that always - beautiful smiling faces. Take care - you will be okay, just take one step and one breath every day, this will get you through.

Milo, I am where you are also with the funeral of my big brother this week and how you are feeling is the same as I am. I want to ring him for something, I know I can't but I want to, and I know these feelings will ease in time for me as they will for you. Lovely photos and they are together again which is a lovely thought. Take your time with the grieving process and know we are all thinking of you for Friday.

It ain't easy, Milo, that's for sure. You'll notice that most expressions of condolence talk about "loss". And that's what it is. But after a while, the feeling of loss is replaced by an appreciation of what you've gained by having had that person in your life. And that's something you can never lose.
Beautiful photos of your Mum and Dad - something you will have forever and also the wonderful memories of them. Time will heal and then you will remember the happy and fun times you had. Also my thoughts with you Judy - I lost a big brother sometime ago but the memories will help - just takes time.
Sincere condolences Milo. It's terrible to loose a parent at Christmas. Alex lost his mum Christmas Day and I lost my mum Boxing Day. We now become the older generation. Milo, was your Dad a teacher by any chance?
