I received a phone call early on Sunday morning to tell me that my Dad had passed away.
I then drove to my Mum's house to break the news to my mum and brother. It came as a huge shock as he had improved massively on Friday and Saturday, to the extent that we all actually started to believe he would be coming home.
I went to the hospital and sat with him for two hours. The hardest thing was getting up to leave.
Everyone who knew him has paid tribute to what a genuinely lovely person he was, and even the nurses told me that he was a pleasure to care for. I was lucky to have such a wonderful Father - I will miss him so much.
I'm so sorry Juliette to hear your sad news. You must feel as if you've been on a rollercoaster ride with all the ups and downs. I'm sure your Dad would have known you were there for him. I hope your happy memories bring you a little comfort.
