Why didn't I cry when I found out my Dad is dying?

not everyone cries. maybe u didnt like ur dad or u probably cried enough when he was sick or somehting but like the saying goes noone knows how much u trully miss someone untill u loose them. u cant control everything in life. im sorry about ur dad. i really am

I did the same thing when my grandma cryed a year ago and I would cry all the time after she died and I still do.

My dad has kidney cancer level 4 and has been going very painfully, For the most part I don’t cry but then I have my days when I feel It’ll never be o.k. The fact is when you finally do break down, let yourself, it’s good to let it out, holding this type of hurt, anger, depression in will eat you alive. I am terribly sorry to hear of this and If you tell me his name I will add him to my prayers. I’m 24 and have 2 young children who wont even remember my dad, Please know unfortunately you are not alone. God Bless and good luck

People handle things in different ways. It may not have hit you yet, either. My Grandma jsut died and I cried a little when they told me but it didn’t really bother me until I saw her at her funeral and I haven’t cried since then. But when it comes to things that she should be there for, it may hit me again..The best thing to do for him is act like everything is normal so that he can enjoy the rest of his life instead of being too careful..

thanks..I still havent cried but I’m sure I will soon.

trust me u will in time what your goin thou is a stage of shock/denial i did the same thing now i cry all the time

You’re probably so shocked you didn’t cry. Don’t worry, that happened to me. My step sister died a few years ago and I didn’t cry at all but I was so shocked. What I would do now is give him a big big hug and tell him how much you love him. Good luck, god bless you. :)
