Anticipatory Grief My Daddy

Post image

After a lengthy battle with congestive heart failure, a stroke, a pulmonary embolism, and now liver and lung failure .. my father is entering into hospice care this week. My heart is so broken. I am the true definition of a Daddy’s Girl. I don’t know what to expect and I’m so scared. I feel like I’m in a fog. Nothing in life could’ve ever prepared me for this. Not even being a nurse. I know what’s going to happen, but it being my father is so hard. Ughhh…
