i hope ya get this message.. ihad the same feelings after my father died suddenly. i was running late for school (12 yrs old) dad took us to the bus and i didn't get to kiss him goodby FOR THE DAY or tell him i loved him. he died that day in his sleep. it ate me alive for years. and finally one day i realized that i could pray and tell him i loved him and missed him and was sorry he died with out me saying those things to him... it was like a burden was taken off my shoulders. i know it got thru.. and i could once again go on with life.
i guess what i amm trying to say is talk to him, thru prayer. you can be healed..
