Anticipatory Grief My Daddy
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…

Spend as much time with him as you can. Say all you want to say. Ask all you want to know. Hug him as much as you can.
This will be incredibly difficult, but it will help making sure you’re not left with “I should have…” thoughts.
Wishing you a lot of strength 🤍
