My Dad Passed Away
6 years ago
General
A few of you know already from discord, but my dad passed almost two weeks ago from heart failure. Luckily it was fast once it happened, but
it was fast. Faster than we were expecting.
He was supposed to be having heart surgery in another couple of weeks to fix the issue that got to him, but it just didn't happen that way.
It actuallyyy happened the day I got my first paycheck from the new job. I was supposed to buy us dinner with it, but I ended up having to leave work early to go to the hospital, and he was gone about an hour later.
But we had a 'celebration of life' yesterday, some of his family from South Carolina came up to visit, and plenty of his auction work buddies. It was nice to have a gathering and listen to the stories of my dad.
It's kinda strange. We were all there when he passed, we've cleared out his clothes, sorted through some of his personal belongings, had the family gathering, but it still doesn't really feel real yet. It just feels like he's on one of his week trips
But yea. I'd appreciate it if you didn't leave 'I'm sorry for your loss' type comments, if that's okay. I'm trying to keep the situation positive(even if he left us in a...tight spot, which is why I've been taking commissions still). I just wanted to let you know what's going on and why I've been rather off lately

Very much same :c I almost didn't go because I thought it was something small and he'd be home soon. I had a feeling that I should go though, and have no regrets
