I feel so bad, my dad was planning a trip to Kentucky, and I told him last night that I didn't think he should go, after he was looking forward to the trip. Now he's cancelled the trip and is making me feel guilty by saying it's his fault for getting his hopes up.

Well, I lost my mom less than 2 months ago, and I didn't want to lose him as well. It also seems if he went, he might not want to come back home.

oh, i'm sorry to hear about that. Do yo have a strong relationship with your father? Because the only reason, i think, that he would want to leave is if you didn't.
I believe it is quite natural to be afraid to lose somebody, especiallyafter losing a loved one not too long ago, but it's a part of the trials that we have in our lives. For example, parents are afraid to lose their children all the time, whether it is at school, at a friends house or if the child is a part of the "bad" crowd.
My advice to you is to pray always, for your father's safety, that he will return safely from wherever his is, and also pray for comfort to help you get through these troubling times, and to ease your mind.
I don't know if that will help you very much, but I tried wink

Well, he got to do something he wanted to do anyway, so he seems happier.

I don't find anything wrong with that at all. You didn't just lose your mom, he lost his wife. He probably understood what you were saying, even if you didn't say it.

i have not lost any family yet so i do not knowwhat you are going through, but if you felt something wrong about him living you and you acted upon your feelings than i say that it was okay to ask him not to go. I think it is great that your father knows what you are going through (since he lost his wife/your mom) and that both of you can support each other as youboth go through this trial.
