Stepmother died, my father's a wreck. Basically on standby waiting for him to reply for the last 48hrs so I can tell him I'm headed to the airport. He's a stubborn bastard that doesn't know when he needs help, but he eventually cracks. Just gotta give him space and time.
Sorry for your loss. I'm glad your father has people like you around just, there, and ready to be there when he reaches out.
Ah, it's fine. I'm celebrating her life. Hell of a person. My father is a finer wine of me, so I know he's the same. But I know all that death admin will be draining him on top of the massive life loss—in a time when someone needs to be left alone to reflect thale most.
If we could steal the body back, viking funeral it or something, everyone involved would be having tears of love and joy. But...that's not how society allows it these days because of assholes, so paperwork it is!
Yep, the paperwork is significant. Especially when dividing assets are involved. Even when there aren't any fights it takes days to work through it all. I remember when a great aunt died, my dad was named executor, it took so much longer than i'd ever thought. Wrap me up and bury me under a tree for me.
