100 Word Challenge for Grown Ups – Week#146
It has been a strange week. My son’s father died suddenly and although he was poorly, it was a shock.
So, how do I feel? What should I feel when the father of my child leaves us in his mid 60’s? We had always been friendly and met at the regular round of birthdays, high days and holidays.
As a mother, I’m struggling. My son does not live near so trying to support him as he sorts out his aged grand parents, plans a funeral and deals with his father being intestate is hard. He will be fine. He’s my son.
Your prompt this week is:
…with your going comes the past…

Thanks Tess.
Difficult times Julia, your son is half of him and will always be a reminder.
I am sorry for your loss. He was once a husband and you shared a life, and he never stopped being a father. Glad you had a good relationship.

My thoughts are with you. A loss of any kind is always tough. Much strength to you and your son.
Many thanks for your kind thoughts
Oh… :-(. While I have no friendship with my ex, we do manage to be civil around each other those times when we find ourselves in mutual company….which is usually something doing with my grandson. I can image how hard it would be on the kids, and my condolences to you all. Strange emotional time I am sure.
So sorry to hear about this.
Thank you
I’m sorry for your loss. I know it will be sad for me when my children’s father dies. We have been divorced for a long time, but we’ve managed to create a workable friendship once he was able to get his substance issues under control. I wish you and your son peace at this sad time.
Thank you. It is a very strange time.
