I’m so sorry Shirley. It doesn’t matter how prepared you think you are, it is utterly devastating when you lose your loved one in such a way. I sat with my Mum for ten solid days before she died in her care home and everyone told me not to feel guilty if I felt relief that she was out of her suffering when it happened. I never did feel relief just overpowering sadness. I hope you find the strength to support you Dad. Condolences.
