    Harley.hames,

    I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. It is sad to survive such a tragic accident, and then succumb because of it later. It sounds like the pain could have been too intense, as a carryover from the accident. Alas, that truth will be elusive. Life can be cruel and leave us with so many questions.

    I hope you have family to be with. To help each other with the sorrow associated with this loss. There will never be a good enough reason for the loss of your dad. No matter what it is, it can stay with you for so long.

    I know when I lost my dad, I never realized how much hurt he had kept to himself. He passed from lung cancer. I was going to college at the time, married with two sons, working part-time, and now after his death taking care of mom. There would have been no answer I could accept why he passed so quickly, two days after seeing his doctor. I hated so much back then and was angry I had so many questions unanswered.

    I eventually developed depression because of dads death. This is my actual account: https://www.griefincommon.com/threads/depression.1785/

    All I will say is watch out for your well being. Be your own best friend and be mindful to take care of yourself. Be safe.
