Oh Alex I am so sorry to hear about your loss and that it was unexpected makes it even harder.
I remember thinking how lucky you were to have such a "hip" father when I met him in London.

Don't be too hard on yourself. You will find the strength to get thru the next days, I am sure. When you get thru all these feelings of loss, there will always be the memories to cherish. xo

Ohhhh....

I am so terribly sorry to hear this, HTM/Alex. Sad

I have always enjoyed your posts so much, and, even though I don't really know you, I sincerely am sad for your loss. Sad

I will keep you and your family in my prayers in the coming days/weeks. This is a wonderful place to come when you need to "talk", and you have many, many friends here to want to listen--and help.

Hi everyone,

Firstly, thank you all so much for the kind and considerate thoughts. The coroner phoned this afternoon and it does indeed appear to have been a heart attack. It was incredibly sudden and he would have felt no pain, apparently. I wish I knew his thoughts in the final seconds though. His last words before running up the stairs were: ‘I don’t feel well’ It seemed like the exact same scenario he goes through when he’s about to be sick – maybe he thought he was. At this very moment, my mum, her sister and my two brothers are out at a crematorium. He always said that he disliked the local one, so they have trekked elsewhere!

I’ll post more soon. Right now I just need to reflect, I guess.

Alex

Alex,I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dad.I'm a lot older than you and my dad passed away in 1978.It was a long time ago but the memorys of his life with us will always be there.They say time is a healer and it's true.It may not seem like that now but as time go's by things will feel easier. I know it can be extremely difficult,but try to be brave, and it sounds like you have a nice family to support each other.
