Firstly apologies for this post. Its a bunch of random words but my mind is in all different levels of confusion. Anger. Sadness, worry. Regret and more.
My dad whos been in and out of hospital through the last year. Erm im not quite sure how long he has left. Ive been down to see him and not quite sure how I feel about yesterday how I feel about anything really. I just don't know how to function right now.
But thinking of football and my time spent with my dad is something I'll always remember.
The first time he took my into the churchmans stand. The hot dog stall. The ham sandwich and drink in the bar thats now the george burley bar I think it is.
I remember my had always moaning. "Ah come on" hed screech. I can hear it just typing it. He used to wind people up with it. He always meant well he just loved ipswich but hed seen the good days so when we were drawing with a port Vale or a Grimsby He wouldnt take to it. I assume thats where my high expectations come from and can hear my dad when ever I sit on my sofa saying oh come on.
I remember the play off final. Getting the coach with him. Having chicken and chips before the game. Taking our seat and the coach back. I know I said thank you but if I could go back id say it better thank an expectatant teen.
My dad always tried to do what he could for me. Esp when it came to football. Year on year he got us season tickets. I never appreciated the stress he had of making sure he got them. I was expectant. God I wish I could go back and let him know at the time how much it meant to me.
I remember one time he was Ā£100 short or something and he took me to a bookies. I stood by the door as he put a bet on hoping to win the money to get the ticket. In walked dyer to put 1k on a greyhound that didnt come in. He shrugged walked out. My dad.. just stood I could see the pain in his eyes. He didnt win the money that day. I wish I could have said dont worry. Its not needed.
He did indeed get that ST and again we shared weekly football witb town.
I wish I could turn back the time. Relive those years.
For all those that attend pr with your friends. Family. Kids. Enjoy them. Remember them and keep them as long as you can.
I dont know where to turn right now. I dont know how to feel. How to act. Whats right whats wrong. Theres no predicted time for this. No predicted date. Its clinging on to some miracle thwt he gets through it but at the same time in his 80s is getting through it the best thint for him. Then I feel guilty for thinking that.
I just dont know how to function right now. I dont even know why im sharing. I just dont really have people to air it too. I know I have wife and son but I cant load this on them.
Always sorry for this random post. Just needed to write down some feelings as been speaking them in my head all day.
Yours
Frimmers. |  |

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Frimmers.
The situation you are going through with your Dad is enough for you to cope with. Try to put everything else in a separate basket of too much for you to deal with right now. What's happening will play out whether you get involved or worry or don't.
Be kind to yourself. There is nothing more difficult to deal with than the emotions you are currently living with.
EDIT: My condolences. Hadn't read of his passing until after I wrote the above but that still applies. Your emotions will be enough to have to deal with for quite a while. Leave everything else to one side otherwise. Look after yourself. [Post edited 31 Mar 8:19]
