There is no way to ease the pain Jemmie
You are doing the best thing Jemmie, taking one day at a time.
The wonderful thing about the closeness you have (not had, have) with your Dad is that he WILL always be with you. It won't ever be good enough to only communicate with him spiritually, but it may be a tiny comfort that you can do that. It's a bittersweet situation, you wouldn't miss him so much if you didn't grow up with that connection, but think how many memories you have to cherish of your years together ?
You are such a gifted writer, maybe it would help to start a journal to him, writing all those anedotes and things you want to tell him now.

This is true. However, on my lowest days, even the good memories bring on sadness when I realize that I'll never make any new memories with my Dad.
Thank you so much for your comment! *hug*

I have only one person I feel I can really talk to about my pain since she often feels the same way. Most everyone else I know haven't felt this kind of loss and get awkward or go silent when I try to talk to them about it.
Thank you so much for thinking of me. It really means a lot.

It takes time for pains to heal.
I find that talking about good memories help. One day, everything won't look so bad.
